The One Who Observe
I
From one meter or so
Book and pen
An artwork before him
Glancing once
Keep on writing
Keep on writing
Write
Write
Write
Lastly, take a picture
II
He is looking at it
Is that hesitant in eyes
Or confusion
Look seriously then look away
Look at the screen phone
Walk away
To write, you don’t have to look closely
III
I don’t see him seeing
Perhaps I don’t get the chance to see
Or actually, no one needs to see
