She sat down on the beach, the same bench she sits on all the time waiting.
As people pass her she examines them their clothes, their shoes, their faces, body gestures and hair. She leans forward and puts her elbows on her knees. She’s impatient and wants to leave but her body just won’t let her move.
Across the street she sees the same blue building with the same clear windows and the same countless employees going in and out the rotating doors.
She wonders what purpose the building really, truly, and rightfully has. She wonders why she’s brought here everyday, she wonders why she feels safe on the clod plain bench across the street. She wonders why her?!
Its about 9:00 p.m. now, the building security is locking and securing every door now. The lights of the brightly lit building are now dimmer than the street lights. She unwittingly and slowly lifts herself from the bench and walks home.
On her walk home she finds an acorn on the side of the road. She looks up but to her knowledge there are no trees near, she picks up the acorn and continues on her way approaching her home she enters, eats dinner, take a hot shower and is quickly off to bed.
Its Tuesday now and she gets out of her bed and walks to the closet, gets ready for her day, and leaves her house. She comes to the same bench on the same street across from the same large glass windowed building, everything was exactly the same.
As she was observed by many people everyday, everyone wondered why she sat at that bench, looking at that huge building without any concern in that she’d be there watching…………..
