Senseless creatures

staring away from my bedroom window

I can see it all go by from right there

the people, the colors, the days

spending time hipnotized by the rare

I imagine what’s behind all the masks flying by

all that the creatures feel, all they desire

such placid faces, as if all is well inside

but I know better, what they conspire

you never know what they want from you

it never really transpires

there’s only waiting and waiting

as times fly by ‘til you burn with their fires
