Seeing
from Sensing Life
Watching Early Morning People
Subway riding…
Crowded
A woman holding the hand of her young child
Teenager writing quickly, looks like math homework
Tall guy in suit and tie
Short guy in suit and tie
Almost identical but not really
One man in heavy boots and coveralls texting
One man in uniform shirt and jeans texting
Another just hanging out going nowhere in particular texting
Uniformed children animated, loud, good or bad
You know what I mean?
Arrive
Finally off the train
Ride up or walk
Stand to the right or the left
Decisions. Decisions.
More people pass quickly by
Impatient
Fast moving to someplace or
just moving fast.
Racing by the disabled, the elderly
Not seeing the pregnant woman
Moving, moving, fast
Unseeing
Getting where they are going
On time
In time
Out of time
Time is critical
People moving, running
Pushing, shoving
Crowded together
Moving up and out
People
Burst out of the hole in the ground
Almost in unison
Parting left and right
Crossing streets against the light
Moving, moving, fast
