Re-Obvious
Speaking of “obvious” (a word used in yesterdays posted Words on Images re-visit), I find that certain words continue to pop up in my creations. I don’t know if that is simply a verbal habit or if there is something deeper to be gleaned from the tendency. The words, “brilliant,” “silly,” “whisk,” “simple,” and, of course, “obvious,” are a few that come to mind right now. You are probably able to spot more than I, as it is most often invisible to me. If I recognized it, I’d be less inclined to continue the habit, obviously.

you weren’t here last night
to hear if I had something to say
not that I did
but that doesn’t matter
it isn’t the point, anyway
I took a stroll through empty rooms
and talked to myself out loud
some nonsense, not about anything
a break in the absence of sound
I’m watching how slowly
the soul of this place
is shifting
without you around
