Man In The Window

Man In The Window

A lonely man

with a tie dye curtain

leans on the windowsill

looking out upon traffic.

Shirtless and tired,

he shudders as the

cold air from outside

hits against his bare skin.

He resorts to the

position when he’s

feeling down, although it

doesn’t help he’s on his knees.

You call him a freak

I call him a seeker.

Either way, he’s

the man in the window.
