Sight Between Buildings

We cling to homes and abilities

A feeble attempt to break our cyclic equilibrium

Of solitude and sanctuary

We seek the herds and the loudest crowds

To feel whole, to feel alive

Is living really a matter of wholeness?

But what of those who are not in the crowd?

How do we perceive the hermit

The loner, the wanderer, the soulless cripple?

Do their lives matter to us happy people in the mass

When we do not know how to reach them

Or have the ability to understand them

Amongst the living, walks the undead

Droning, mindless, pointless

These people sees no tomorrow

With no future possible, what dreams do these strange folk have?

What hopes do they have for themselves?

How can we make them a part of our happiness?

If only we knew
