Swaying Fish

People flock in like birds to a feeder Some disappointed by distant seats The lights diffuse; eyes dilate and focus as shadows materialize on stage Shouting Cheering Whistling Sheer ear rattling sounds stir your blood, urging withdrawn screams to bubble forth The music starts the beat catches your foot than your legs Your become another fish in the swollen sea of swaying people But just as soon as it started it's over You solemnly retrace your tracks on the journey home Tedious buzzing lingers in your ear drum and is left as the faint whisper of music dissipates
