quit acting like this.

i was re-reading a book i bought a few years back and i noticed a few sections i outlined.
its strange.
i wonder what exactly grabbed my attention. if i were to read it now, for the first time, would i notice these particular passages again?

----------------------------------------------------

and i look up at the window and think
i no longer know where you are,
and i walk on and wonder where
the living goes
when it stops.

----------------------------------------------------

and the once beautiful
wives
stood in their bathrooms
combing their hair,
applying makeup,
trying to put thier world back
together again.
trying to forget that
awful sadness that
gripped them,
wondering what they would
fix for
breakfast.

----------------------------------------------------

most of the boys
cheered
and the little girls
sat very straight and
still,
looking so pretty and
clean and
alert,
their hair beautiful,
in a sunshine that
the world might
never see
again.
