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
