Tinted lense is voyeurs tool, anonymity and shield
Crowds of gathered people become feast to curiosity
Through a window the vicinity becomes the centre stage

Everything here in the melting pot,all religions and race
Arguments over petty things, before your eyes a lover's tiff
Too long a stare at passing blonde, one smile returned to damn
Accusations rain like bullets, guilty of nothing yet everything

Faces contemplate the world, in the thought pool of dark coffee
Stir away troubles with a spoonful of sugar
Expressions paint pictures more than words ever could
Body language clear, when the spoken word misleads

Too often the outward looks inward, closes in on self
Slaves to our own preoccupation, haunted by our past
Staring at others, wishing to be more ike them
Assuming that their lives are blessed by carefree inner peace

Day runs almost slumbering, clouds cross sky unhurried
Paralleling lovers eyes seek energy within
Gazes fall upon someone looking wistful at the distance
Perhaps someone, somewhere, is also doing it to you
