Video

I saw 

a women

in a

video.

She was

old

walking slowly.

The Video

was seventy

years old.

It was made

in Berlin

after the war.

Smashed buildings 

everywhere,

smashed 

lives too.

Where she

was headed,

I had no 

idea.

But that

moment

for her,

was just

as focused

as this

moment for

me 

as I’m typing 

these 

words.

How fleeting 

it all be.
