Life
is something
something
that happens to
other people

They are caught up in swirling bustling vibrant vital torrents
of
intense friendships
crucial activities
the coolest things
a carefree dream
of
good times
expectant mornings
dynamic afternoons
and sunny evenings
warm with the afterglow
of great experience shared

Their future a blank page
a broad canvas
clear and bursting with promise

Wrapped in the heart of Life
other people are not
detached
disconnected
up and off-centre
like a cheap out of body experience
an objective
(objectionable)
viewpoint
