Coming Into A Room (A Copenhagen Interpretation)

              I've noticed that I'm hesitant                When first coming into a room.               Something about my absence there                That my presence need not consume.               It’s as if I were intruding,                Having failed at the social art.               Intrusion is not my nature,                I'm more of a voyeur at heart.               Or maybe it intrudes on me                Because it is equally true,               That you change the rooms you enter                As much as they change you.
