Observation Duty

He waves his arms
Steps about
Turns in circles
Points, with a vengeance

His attire
Grey slacks, brown coat
Gives no suggestion
To his energetic gesticulations

Although the red shoulder bag
Seems a tad out of place
Perhaps he is the drop
Awaiting his instructions

I look up
Ar first think him gone, then 
I notice that he is on the move
Unfolding a paper notelet

People Watching

Black coffee
On the raised outdoor platform
I would so like a strong cigarette

Yet to gaze on the heavenly passers by
Is both a comfort and a distraction
Except when they too are smoking

In the squeeze of suburbia
One might struggle to find beauty

Yet just catch the warm smiles
Of children, parents & grandparents
Oblivious to the ugly overhung buildings
Shored up beside the rail-track

Instead they laugh
As the tunnel’s darkness falls
