sleepwalking

they are sleepwalkers.
but it's daylight.
you see them on the street,
on the buses,
the trains.
there they are at their
desks,
their cubicles.
adrift in jobs, lost
in the minutiae, the
mundane, asleep
at the wheel.
lost in a dream.
unaware and unawake.
disappearing into
the subway, 
melting away
in the rain.
