STARE

As he sits at the window

Staring into a space only he can see

A space made by him in his dreamlike state

Walls, windows, doors, roads all merge and mingle

Into a cornucopia of dull, gloomy brown and white shapes

Everything becomes one

All as one

All together

In a patchwork quilt of life passing by

On a mattress of earth  

For all to see

Use

Abuse

Images and words flash by his eyes

From reality to dreams

By the power of a mind

That stares

Observes

And turns reality into dreams

Dreams into meaning

Meaning into life

Life into reality
