Ramblings - Writing

Waiting Room Poetry

No words

Images in letters
feelings captured in
familiar shapes
Squashed and contorted
flattened to be tethered
to a page
Ink dries
Abbreviated creation
Concepts contained
Paraded for consumption
Judgment and Awe of others
A heart
Fragile
Read
Interpreted but not
insulated
In the clumsy hands
of Strangers
