NaPoWriMo Day 1: Both Sets of Eyes

This year I got myself together and decided to start NaPoWriMo from the beginning. If you'd like to join in, you can find prompts and things here.

Prompt 1 is to be inspired by a bibliomancy oracle tumblr and Prompt 0 is an ekphrastic poem. 
Well, oracle makes me thing of The Matrix, which is a movie. And so...

Both Sets of Eyes


The other day I took a walk
while listening to a film on my iPod.

I knew it in and out and I had
places to be. I think that

the next best thing to seeing is
hearing and why not? When

I can ambulate to my destination
while recalling all of

the sights I've seen before? Each
place is familiar and at both,

I am a regular. Part of two worlds-
hearing both and experiencing

the oddest bits of déjà vu
while listening to a film as

I take a walk. Focusing on two
places; one with my minds eye.

Here's to jumping back in. I hear you Spring and Summer, I hear you.
