can you hear it
that's the sound of nothing
the silent sound of nothing going on

can you feel it
that's the feeling
the feeling of nothing being read into this poem

can you see it
that's the dullness
the dullness in the recess, hiding out between every line

try not to waste it
as you taste it
the bitter sweet taste to the end of the rhyme

I'm looking
     because I wish to see

Searching
      because I wish to find

Listening
      because I wish to hear



I'm wanting
      because I wish to become

Retreating
       because I wish to observe

Loving
     because I wish to be loved
