pensive
-------

pensive
thoughts seized in secret meetings
whispering in foggy alleys
lit by street lamps flickering

still
eyes dart from fixed location to the next
a corner    a face    art     cup
the sunlight's hard angle creates
lines on the floor
defined regions of light and dark
still frozen seized

thoughts
worried about everything
until everything has passed
me    a deer in headlights of my fears
get run over or hopefully passed by
careful drivers

sigh.
