From first to last
Step by step
Our journey through this life
Keeps us looking up
And looking out
(if we look down
We are looking out
And we know which way is up)
Beseech the sky
Or roll our eyes
We ask and wonder and judge
We see
We don’t see
We anticipate
We get blind-sided
The light and color
Our eyes translate
To beauty, love, peace
Or sorrow, pain, loneliness
Put on a show
Pretend you know
What comes next
Then close your eyes
And sigh.
