the fine line between love and safety

i watched an elderly couple
eat dinner in silence.

a man sat in a subway car
searching for what he already has.
i watched him move,
and wondered what looking is for.

maybe we are here to look
in the other’s face every morning,
eat each other’s cookingand say it was good
