Avatars

A Poem by E.J. Waling

Eyes.
Look Into
the eyes.
One after
the next.
Inhabitants
of time.
Accepting
the role.
What choice?
Each time
the only time.
Dealing
in the unique.
Each time
unique.
Each challenge
unique.
Wrapped,
shackled,
unique time.
Knowing no
other.
Accident of
birth.
Accident of
time.
Playing the
role, each
stage seemingly
real.
Avatar knows
no other.
Building
pyramids,
walking in
space, unique.
Each unique.
Unique place.
Place in time.
Each seems
normal, as it
should be.
Avatar,
in the eyes.
Knows
no other.
Existence
as laid
out.
Unique,
each experience
unto itself.
Avatars
come and
go. It’s in
the eyes.
Look into
the eyes,
what’s gazing
back?
Confusion,
lack of
understanding.
Battling
to survive.
Unique
each unique.
