Blessed Oblivion
travel journal
back to Covent Garden
street performer strums and sings
Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah”
nine-year-old boy ten feet away
chubby Down Syndrome dancer
dances like no one’s watching
gray t-shirt, denim shorts, red Velcro sneakers, horn-rimmed glasses, blonde hair
jumps, spins, and sways,
OUT OF SYNC
immersed in the music
stealing the show
arms raised, face skewed skyward
oblivious to all else
IN SYNC
with the moment
loving life as so few do
