DON'T TAKE ALL THE SHEETS

DON'T TAKE ALL THE SHEETS

A Poem by Glen Fitch

       

    Hello, excuse me.
        Hate to interrupt you
            when your teeming thoughts
                are coming fast.
    But I'm here too.
        Don't mean to be abrupt.
            I'm waiting
                for your great climatic blast.
    Is there a reason
        why you want to share?
            Go be alone.
                Don't waste my time.
        With all or in succession
            I don't care.
                I only ask you
                    make me sense we rhyme.
    My eyes! Look deep.
        Caress my ears. Don't shout!
    I mean,
        if you want my attention
            be attentive too.
    Ya, okay, get it out!
        But first surprise me,
            stir me, be with me.
    You've got a journal.
        Scribble safe at home.
            As far as I'm concerned
                we're not a poem.

A word is a wager in thought. Every one I pick is a bet that it will mean to you what it means to me. That is at least today, relevant to my race, class, gender and community. The fine print in my poe.. more..
