Guilt

poetry

I’m having trouble
Com-pre-hen-ding
What it is you’re saying
Speak up!
You’re whispering.
Shut up!
You’re shouting.
No, I don’t
Need to explain myself
To you
Can’t I just go to bed already?

The difference between
Extracting and
Extrapolating:

The one bears the
end result,
the other counts the
potential
for the one

Do we extract our
poetry, or
extrapolate?

Are these words worth
the thoughts they’re
meant to convey?

Or are we simply counting
our (un?)limited
potential?
