I saw a man walking on a bridge. He was being followed by an ambulance driver as several law enforcement personnel approached from every direction.

I imagine he was planning to jump into the river below.

i saw a truck with American flags jammed into the sidewalks of its bed.

I imagine the flags were some extension of their political beliefs.

I saw people burning candles at the space where a person killed themself the other day.

I imagine the exercise was an extension of the stress those that were lighting the candles have been carrying for some time.

I saw a line of cars at the coffee store and it looked a lot like the line that was there yesterday and the day before that and the day before that.

I imagine the line looks the same every day and the line never gets shorter.

I saw myself on a bike and I was smiling.

I imagine my old self would be real pleased to know I saw myself today.
