Deleted Words
deleted words
you might note
the following blank lines
in which several words
are now deleted..
perhaps..
or words
in this space
were never written
perhaps..
nevertheless
the space
expresses the only
surety we can know..
it indefinitely flows
and enlarges into
wide margins we notice..
the space has retained
the secret of words
which did or did
not play..
and the words
if they played
day or night
played as space
eternally white...
