Ennui

The murmur of conversations
between white walls, the
half-second silent pauses,
the bland delicacies, the opening
and shutting of eating mouths,
the subconsciously audible
breathing and much shuffling of
feet, the eyes puffy under harsh
light, the burst of outrageous
laughter over some half-hearted
humor, the still and vapid air,
the sighs.
