Time voyeur

Late at night, when no one is up,

But insomniacs and crazy old men

I surf the internet

for old movies frozen in time

Always with the sound off

So no one wakes

I marvel as their craft

Slowly fades from grainy celluloid

It doesn’t matter to this time voyeur

If they died famous or forgotten

It only matters that

No one is up, but me
