Blind
Today I was standing
Alone in the street
Staring at a fence,
Through which I could not see.
And I wondered what was behind
That tall fence across the street
And why it was shut away
Like a secret in a diary
Or a prisoner in a cell.
For a moment I thought I saw
Movement through the slats,
A pair of eyes staring back at me.
But then they were gone,
And I was alone in the street,
Left to wonder
What I could not see.
