Sit and Watch
I sit and watch the fall of the rain
feeling the soft peach fuzz grazing upon my face
as I cup my warm rosy cheeks to stabilize the atlas.
I sit and watch through the window.
The window was frigid and smooth
The window looked blue, but no stained glass.
I sit and watch the cloudy tears race upon my aperture,
My bet was the right tear but it was the left.
¨Was the right tear sad?¨ I said now melancholy
I sit and watch the participation fade
Why do grey skies and rain make us sad?
Must be the symbolism.
All I did was sit and watch
Maybe sit and think
But I can't think if I don't watch.
