The temptation is to sit and still
to invisibility
To lie behind our glass walls, our glassy eyes
And observe and absorb the scenery
Until we sit sure of ourselves
Like the unmoved mountains
To let the traffic and people and feelings
Scuttle along
Without you
To simplify
To simply
Be
Is this a temptation, or is it discipline? I like the juxtaposition of observe and absorb
