They Came With the WordsA Poem by Lloyd Frieson-SmallAnother from my first Chapbook. Mysterious in its entirety.
As I sat and pondered last night in pitch darkness, trying to understand more of myself, I heard a voice not far from me. It was barely audible at first, but I heard it. "Who is that?...Who are you?", I whispered... "I am no one, we are no one.." , It whispered... "Who are you?.." A second voice answered, "I am you..We are him..." "Who, me?", I asked... The second voice answered, "No, him..." "And who are you?", I asked... "I am no one, we are no one... We came with the words, we live in the moment.." I got up and turned on the lights, I was not surprised to see nothing there... "Maybe I'm going crazy..", I said as I turned the lights off once again... "Crazy people don't know they're crazy, are you crazy?..." I heard the voices once again speaking together now, one behind the other, as a whisper and it's echo... "Who are you?!", I asked as I turned the lights on once more... "We came with the words, we live in the moment... I am you.. We are him..."
