yesterday i saw two men behind me on motorcycles. one of the men was moving his mouth and hands quickly and the other man beside him was nodding, as if he understood. but the first man had a scruffy, long mustache and beard surrounding his mouth and i wondered if the second man was just humoring the first. pretending that somehow he could hear above the motorcycles' engines or maybe he was pretending to read the first man's lips. but they were invisible lips...lips only to be accepted by faith, not by sight.
i was perplexed
as i continued to watch them in my rear-view mirror i began to notice that the first man kept using these wild hand movements that seemed a bit manic at first look but then i began to see that they were not random, sporadic gestures but rather, they were his form of communication. he was using sign-language. it struck me as amazing as i then turned my eyes to the second man who was still nodding his head but signing back to the first.
it all became beautiful then
