Splatter on the floor
Metal on the sides
Lights on top
The doctor walks in

Orange on the chairs
Posters on the walls
Windows aside us all
The musician walks in

Rails from the chairs
Poles from the floor
Signs on the walls
The artist walks in

The metal doors shut
The wheels sputter
The room starts to shake
The stroller gets free

Rocking back and forth
The wheels squeak to stop
The doors open
A book flys forward

The Jewish man
The Christian woman
The husband
The daughter

The student
The professor
The white
The black

The lawyer
The jury
The author
The homeless

All walks of life
All on different paths
All oblivious of each other
Yet all next to one another
