The Bottom Line Another really old poem, more prose than image-driven poetry perhaps... but thanks Epinions, for adding these categories.
I was never awake to see the sunrise never able to see the sun awaken from its lonely somber slumber I never saw the milky coral blue sky that turned a lighter shade of blue with every minute that passed, until almost achieving a pure white light until the first rays of light burst out from behind the distant tree-lined mountain tops. And I never saw the people down on the street shuffling about like fire ants with coffee, papers and quick glances at watches with hellos and goodbye waves. I never felt the stimulation of remembrance brought on by the warmth of money and reading words typed on newsprint. And I never knew what it was like to race out towards destiny - with people driving like pinballs in an arcade - filled with sudden accelerations through prescribed motions that have the power to jolt you awake and even kill you or tear you apart. No, again, these twenty years have come and gone so fast, and now a darkened sky swallows me whole as I stand staring out into the horizon from behind my window, watching it turn colors. Watching what I had never been awake to see before. (c) March, 1997, Steven H. Lee what the darkness doesn't know... You like me, don't you?
