Man Who Was Staring At A Wall

Rating: 4.0


Beside the road which I walk to work,
A man was sitting on the ground, staring at a wall.
Infinite world behind him.
But in front there was a wall.

I kept thinking about what was he doing.
So, I went to him and asked from him,
'Sorry to interrupt you my dear friend,
But I keep wondering, why are you staring at a wall? '

He looked at me with an amazed face, and said,
'Why can't you see! I'm doing the same thing that you all do'

'Staring into a wall, while infinite world behind me'
