You can feel it in the air, everything is so electric
Shoppers busy buying, stores becoming oh so hectic
Thrilling sights and sounds, yes! Christmas is so near
And of course, there’s Santa, spreading lots of cheer
FOWC with Fandango – Electric

With winter’s cruel strike
The Earth offers no comfort
Many will hunger

They
Define
Apathy
Depressive lives
Changing direction
They yearn to be, yet still
Devoid of Human contact
They seek out other entities
Beings who sympathize, feel pity
Whose lack of faith defines humanity

It’s funny how people see things
So differently than we
Imagine if we saw the same
How boring life would be
Nodding in agreement, no
Words would never rhyme
Sunrise, sunset, moonlight glow
It happens all the time
Never underestimate
Another’s endless thoughts
Listen closely, to their words
And trust, it’s not for naught
Discover where they come from
And what they need to say
See the world, through other’s eyes
Before it slips away

I sit, watching, as they go about their day
Never looking up to see the world, nose glued
To whatever electronic device they happen to have
A woman trips, but picks up her pace,
Even more hurried, two others sit, chatting,
Seemingly unaware they are not alone
The din of an otherwise empty coffee shop
Is music to my thoughts, and as the hours pass,
I realize, I am just like them
