For Your Attention....

have a little time
to this page

it used to be a blank page
an emptiness, a void, a stare

it is calling for attention
its silence like roots call for more depths

it is not the normal page
that you open and leave
with your wet fingers
and dry tongue

listen with your eyes
let your ears see

this is this poem that perhaps
may not make you sleep....
