A Question
A question asked
Heard by none
Never spoken
Nothing done
A question answered
Somehow they knew
Talked to the air
As confusion grew
The questioner replied
Muttered no sound
Nothing to be seen
Searching around
The answerer asked
What's going on?
In the empty silence
Fearing sanity gone
Confused at themselves
'It's nothing' they said
And then a little startled
Walked on and shook their head
