blink
blink an eye
and it happens so slowly
between the spaces
of more
inside this
blink
no thinking
no breathing
no eating
no feeling
blink
an arms race
for power
for saving face
for pride
for spite
blink
blink like a man
blink like a woman
blink like a child
it is a wash of noise
of everything
a flash of brilliance
if you can catch it
blink
blink like all those before
blink like those unexisted
blink like you wanted it
like you had it
and you knew what to do
blink like you never have
