"eight"

riding frantically to work, again

enlightened?

an even more frantic fellow standing at the corner of lake and cedar, huge eyes, gesticulating wildly at the passing cars pointing at his wrist

his invisible watch

surreal, so real

as i ride by he asks me

"what time is it?"

no time for philosophical discourse on the meaninglessness of it all, just enough to say

"eight"

but in fact it was 07:58:23 CST, just one minute thirty seven seconds to get to work

i can still see his eyes

it's all in the eyes, as you know
