one thousand words
might not be enough
to tell you
how i think
what i feel
one thousand words
wont get
to the
heart
of the matter
one thousand words
lovers whispers
scoundrel lies
breath of the wind
soft summer sighs
one thousand words
wont even come close
when there is so much
left
unsaid
one thousand words
from the mouths of babes
and the throats of madness
encapsulating joy
enhancing sadness
one thousand words
and a laugh between sips
vicarious anecdotes
fall from life hardened lips
three,
could do the trick
but only
if that trick
is
to keep
this piece alive
but only
if that trick
is
just a trick
a play on those words
a slip of the pen
[two shorts stories]
(two)
[five micro fictions]
(five)
[ten poems]
([ten poems])
{([ten poems!])}
(TEN – let it echo)
one thousand words
weaving magic telling tales
one thousand words
scripted or ad-libbed
one thousand words
painting
punctuated
pictures
one thousand words
insinuated
indifferent
illusions
one thousand words
whimsical
whispered
wailing
one thousand words
antagonistic
alienated
alliterations
one thousand words
might be too many
one thousand words
will never be enough
one thousand words
all striving to be heard
one thousand words
and then
silence
.
