Gift

Lengthy wires
Wind around the feet
Of those who will not see
And the muffled voices
Of the friends
Pound at those who refuse to listen
The flashlights are omni-bright
Fluorescent to those who shut their eyes
Or will not speak, the microphone
Who shall not touch, the silks, the wools
And to those who will not pay
After today
Are given tomorrows.
