I have become obsessed
with windows.

They say that a person's
eyes are the window
to their soul,

and I believe it.
Windows,
they are honest

and it is clear when they are broken
or old with the kind of history
that those who left it behind
can tell.

I am only a bystander,
I am the person who walks by
staring out or

into each window.
Wondering and admiring
thinking out loud

every question I wish
I could ask.

They are not tainted
to show me

what I want to see.

good or bad
ugly or pretty

I will get a look
as to what is on

the other side.
