Voyeurs Watching From the Audience

Voyeurs Watching from the Audience
David J Walker

I try my best not to watch myself 
Walking the path laid out for today
But, sometimes,  I do anyway in the
Excitement of knowing I am walking

With the feeling that I am 
being watched though

The voyeurs see neither 
clothing nor purpose 
Nor do they care anything about
My imagined nakedness 

The audience never applauds 
And is never at odds with the
Plot that seems to be writing itself
As I go

Today has not yet started 
But I know  that the 
The voyeurs will  be 
watching from the Audience
