Academic Poet 11/14
I write
for an audience of none,
the empty seats of pages turning,
waiting for ink and
thought.
My words drift across resistant papyrus and make their home in the
tufts.
My poems only speak when listening becomes as sweet as a whisper and as
safe.
When I write, the pen speaks, swallowing my voice and spitting verses.
