I Don't Say Much

Don't say much, do you? an impossible question to answer an

Incantation, rather: show me, bestow me your attention. But

Summonses won't warrant me to give you what isn't given freely.

Truthfully, I was building palace parapets in the air in

Reverie daydreaming last night's dream crystal gazing eyes alive

Aligned to the long horizon line the privacy of my mind

Capsized - when you interrupted, uninvited, and commanded

That I speak.

I invoke distraction, my talisman of protection, against the wandering

Of your envious ear and covetous eye. I say all that is mine is mine. So,

No, I don't say much, do I?
