—Looking
    at life through windows—
Never straight on.
Isolated, protected, by that 1/4-inch pane of glass;
    Analyzed, canalized. Glazed.

—Peering
    at experience like a voyeur—
Never up-front.
Removed, unmoved, separated by a distance;
    Emotionless, devotionless. Spared.

—Always
    through windows of sorts—
Never truly touching.
Observer, absurder: an involvement masquerade;
    Maddened, saddened. Alone.

—Crying
    at senseless motivations—
Never really sure.
Watching, waiting, perhaps for someone to notice;
    Finality, banality. Again.
