Blind man

V. Pekárek / V. Pekárek

Blind man, walking along the street
Trying to listen for familiar sounds
Tipping his stick in the hurrying crowd
First slowly moving, than stopped, he lost his way.

The street is noisy, the colors of sounds hurt his hearing
A sudden feeling, he’s never been here, to a place so busy
The glitter of sounds makes a confusing picture
But by no means showing a bewildered creature
The way he walks, the way he stands,
The manner he turns around, the way he behaves.

The traffic slowed down making the space for his crossing
Through six busy lines
He carried his bag just as if shopping
With no compromise made gesture
Instead of waving.

In brightest daylight you’d never been able to see that
All human senses as if concentrated
He’s not even tall he’s a man of his age
He’d never fall it might seem little strange but
The way he walks, the way he stands,
The manner he turns around, the way he behaves.

Blind man…
