Perfect Little Squares

Every building in my view

Has perfect little squares

Of windows lined up neatly

Which I gaze at, unawares.

 

From where I sit, I cannot see

The curtains, shades or blinds,

The distance meaning if I stare,

Then no one really minds.

 

And yet, behind each pane of glass

Some lives are being spent,

Each one unique, no matter what

The co-op fees or rent.

 

The city houses millions,

All with windows facing out,

But we never know what life

Behind those windows is about.
