The Watcher



Seeing is the function
Simply observing

Sounds ripple from afar
Bird call
Train whistle
Coffee pot gurgle
Dog growl
Heating hiss

Coming in closer
The Watcher
Notices
Body of sensation

Head fuzzy
Shoulder ache
Stomach churn
Knee twist
Foot  tap
Toe trap.

The Watcher watches.

Mood changes
Like the weather

Thoughts
Jump

What is this living lump?
Not unlike the rooted tree
But for the Watcher
Becoming me.
