It had been awhile

me, feeling the lights on me

the heat,

the passion,

the beauty of illusory in my grasp.

I watched the motions

come to life,

to imagine where we all are,

standing, in the moment.

Delivering our truths,

as if we were there,

the artist

telling us about a small town,

an easy life,

a simple life,

the nature of wanting to understand,

without really trying,

just being

for the moment

on a stage.
