Sittin' in a Snow Globe

I was caught looking sad.
I didn't mean for it to happen.

I was in a room with many people.
There were conversations
going on in all directions.

Their words were snow in a globe,
everywhere and nowhere.
I sat very still.

So much had gone
so quickly wrong,
I was thinking about nothing.

That's when the kid came up
and said, You look sad.
The globe shook.

Words had no function.
I smiled as millions of flakes
swirled around us.
