Techno Love -No Change

Bright lights and future memories

make me sick

for what I wish I had...



The kids are screaming psych-babble

as I search for peace

in a cathartic world marked with numbers

It needs to end quicker

things take too long

when you're staring at the clock

and hoping for one more glance

at the pretty passerby

to calm you.

I bite my lip and exhale

waiting for something to happen

something to brighten my spirits.

unexpected silence

provides no drama

only Spanish and smoke.

I'm not the only one

as it dawns on me, I spot others

waiting for their moment

putting pen to pad

silently shouting

No second glimpse still

so I rest.
