In keeping with the rules, I'm not revealing the identity of this (now-contrived) person. The person is contrived because it is impossible to truly step into someone else's perspective. Too many filters color this reality, but it seems this is the point.
narrator
television screen glow voices drone
i saw the look on her face--
you left her sitting there again.
driving five over
shuffle softly pages fingertips
wailing muffled despair colic cry room
shoes trip shuffles fall almost
sound most mouths stage whisper
nervous habit
clickclickclickclickclick
no smoke break during service
love thy neighbor
why don't you
because:
clickclickclickclick
rustle whimper sigh PDA
awkward greetings smiles fake fade
get me out of here
maybe i can hear you out there
pray in face of cold wind
away from latecomer inevitable
one more trip to the liquor store
