windowpanes and umbrellasit is like the fuzzy noise coming from the television,
turned to the channel with no signal.
it is similar to popcorn in the microwave,
popping and exciting the senses.
it could resemble the release of stress,
the joints cracking and relaxing as they please.
it belongs in the impatient lover,
pacing the room with heavy, directionless feet.
it can be found in a busy corporate office,
as numbers and letters appear one by one on computer screens.
it is a million grandfather clocks in one room,
second hands ticking and tocking at different tempos.
it is strikingly similar to the crackling of the record
before the needle finds the tune.
blind the sight and i am all of these,
open them again and i am only a gloomy day.
