Line of people
First one
Swings the door open.
But to let it shut
Would be rude
So it is passed on.
To the next
So they too
May enter
And that one
passes it
on
and on
and on
It is a human ritual
Performed
Only
Out
Of
Necessity
They say it is
The mother
Of
Invention.
It just caught my attention today... The way people pass the open door to the next person and so on. It's just something you know how to do, no questions asked.

I like to write about the strangeness of the mundane.
