talking

to stone

in a stream

we talk about

most any

thing

since we sit in silence

most times

seems these days

i talk more

and you less

i tell you

how the light

blinked in the bulb

as i sat waiting

on food

and how none

of the others

did

just that one

in my direct vision

and how it blinked

on and off

like the star

on top of the tree

at Christmas

in Morse code

minutes upon minutes

blinked by

then it went back

to normal

as i sat silent

i tell you this

as if you don’t

already know

but you listen

anyways
