The Face


I am the face
on the torn
movie poster
I am the face
of the moment
look at me
carefully
without blinking
and find
yourselves
explained and
enlarged.

I am the famous
flat, paper
copy of a flesh
and blood
somebody
I am also you,
you and you
and maybe
also me.
I am the
eyes on
the road
nothing
misses me
there's
nothing I
seek, hide
or remember
or remember
to seek
and hide.
I am the face
that can’t
look back
or stick out
its tongue
and enjoy
the sounds
and smells
of the moving
street.

I am the face
on the torn
movie poster
next time
when you
come to my
street know
that I am not
just a face
on the torn
movie poster
but I am,
oh yes, I am
the eyes
of the wall
as well.
