i wonder

looking like a stand-in for my role as a human being
i stroll into an office with papers of which i have no knowledge
i sit and i hear nervously
my brain does the job it's been asked to do
and my mouth answers questions with wit and tact.
and all the while my heart is outside, observing.
i wonder if people can tell I'm miles away?
i wonder if you can see the insignificant amount of attention i pay
i wonder where my heart has been
i wonder if yours can reach out and touch what animates my limbs
i wonder.
and thats all i do with all of me.
