Night Wanderer... Poem by RIC BASTASA

in utter silence
on times when you have nothing to say
it is not only your mouth
that is shut up
it is the whole you
it is like you slept the whole day
and wake up the whole night
with no one beside you
you wake up
finding yourself alone
busy yourself with
a lot of channels on tv
not completing any show
going to the kitchen
eating breakfast at 2 a.m.
surfing the internet
without a definite subject matter
to focus on
just you and the monitor
eye to eye....
