Moments passing stretched into seconds, hours, fragments of degrees of life where you say egress not exist exit not existance in the passing horde of humanity Seconds stretching in touch look trembling on fractions of ideas spawned in moments that take lifetimes to fail to comprehend in a burling haze of body movement In the graying soot of a dirty dusty street corner that swirls hides covers more than queuing hot cold souls dancing in an inner language of possession In the darkened candle light displacing furniture thought emotions that do not fit ideas can only be seen emotions only heard empathy only felt in a caress of intimate Words lengthen into excuses eyes widen into expressions agitation widens into fear of failure unknown talk actions neighbours in talk to fill the void feeling a need to void behaviour that would not exist on a moment of a corner of a street in a dirty gray bustling experience As if a moment between two would matter to more than life that they disregard in their search for that moment |

"As if a moment between two would matter to more than life that they disregard in their search for that moment" So much to ponder, within that one line. Glad I took a moment to stop and visit this thought. |
