-What are we doing?
-We are sitting in front of the library.
-Why?
-To observe of course.
-What are we observing?
-The people walking by.
-There are many people walking here.
-That big guy in the green shirt has a worried look on his face.
-So? He is already gone.
-That is the point. We are attempting to capture a moment of these people's
lives, no more. The girl in sandals just glanced at us. So did that guy.
-Why are they looking at us so?
-Simply because they do not understand.
-What is that thing in his mouth?
-That is a cigarette. He will be dead soon.
-That guy was talking on a phone.
-The orange hat twins! One forwards. One backwards.
-She has an umbrella, yet it is not raining.
-Watch out for the TRUCK!
-What is it doing here?
-Feeding on the peoples toes.
-The guy with the red hat is talking on a cell phone and walking down the stairs
at the same time. How dangerous.
-We pause for a sip of Dr Pepper.
-What is in the manilla envelope? We will never know.
-The girl is sitting opposite me on some stairs.
-Mr. Tall and Lanky giving me funny looks.
-We wonder if they know we are writing about them.
-Caffeine and nicotine. Coffee and a Cigarette. What is he thinking? Is he
trying to kill himself?
-Bright red hair and bright pink pants. We are blinded.
-Moe says the back of his shirt.
-A nearly empty bottle of Brisk. Will she finish it off?
-Two girls wearing head phones travel in opposite directions, one with pink
hair, the other a giant folder.
-A little bee flies by our face.
-The girl is still sitting there.
-She is proof reading her paper as she passes.
-Run guy in red! Are you late for class?
-Two women are chatting on the stairs
-A balding man with glasses and an umbrella. We hope it does not rain on us.
-That guy has a cool hat.
-That guy has a lame hat.
-SNEERING AT ME!
-Our foot is sleeping.
-Is that the same guy with green shirt and red hair? Do people walk in circles
as we do?
-The men are digging a hole.
-He has books! At a library! Amazing!
-Those children are too young to be college students. There must be 30 of them.
We catch the eyes of one, with a smile. Understanding is proportional to youth.
-The girl is leaving her post on the stairs. Thank you for keeping us company,
girl!
-For a moment the place is empty.
-That man has a scooter. Older people can be cool too.
-He wears sunglasses yet the sky is cloudy.
-Loud shoes talk on a cell phone.
-Girls bitching about everything say "What are you wearing?"
-Those guys look the same in blue. We wonder if they are one?
-What is that orange thing on her head?
-She is drinking Mountain Dew.
-Fix your hat, shake her hand. Why, if you are not leaving her?
-I believe we are done here for now.
-Yes. Let us go.
-Good bye moment at the library.
-It is gone.
