Silence

When was the last time
anyone took notice
of blank spaces
of silence

the ones that sit
hang back awkwardly
stand guard over lonely stretches
hesitate at crucial moments
wait

withoutthem
wordsarejustletters
crowdingtogether

in combination
they are limitless with possibility
weaving out of nothing
everything

take notice then of silence
that sits and waits
giving meaning
to every word
by being
here
