Chemistry

The caffeine buzz sets in
as the music drifts across
and across the room
the seeing eyes -
what do they see?

I wonder, my mind wanders
but stays in the same neighborhood
looking down the same old streets.
Has there been
a new building on the block?

Why should I think that any attention comes my way?
besides wishful thinking -
Will I ever find
the look I'm looking for?

Lawrence R. Daffner, 12/93
