Seen As Is

people watching people
to see if they are looking
peeking out in curiosity
glaring from a distance
some in distaste
sourly shaking you
from their vision
others steal
just a simple glance
to imprint the image
of something they saw
new today
that they will relate
later as something
not quite like other
routine persons
watching people
