the hic
...objectively speaking...
brings on a
...silent expression...
of forces that separate
...isolated individuals...
through mere thought
...as if suddenly...
visited by an alien
...whose pack backfired...
on landing but
...that's the way...
transporters work when
...air pressure is the trigger...
as in an elevator or space
'scotty...please beam down my force field belt....i've....a cough.....kirk out'

View from the Balcony.
‘China sound bites.’
‘’Honk, Honk’, nudge, nudge’’ The city says , as dust settles behind the wheels of the many transporters. The westerner learns the ebb& flow, to their credit, & moves to counter the moment of impact.
At our gate the guard smiles, as he continues his shift, from dawn to dark it seems. The uniform pleases him & secures our peace.
Serenity in the early days, physical exercise brings a smile, To those who have no time or tradition to comply. Envy!!
The train dislikes his night time duties, And tells All ,who strain to sleep. AWAKE!! AWAKE!! He cries.
transporters rely
travelers’ way to survive
grave in water world
