Ignore the Words

Ignore
the words
the writer
poured all over
see the white sheet
underneath
wailing at you
tearing up
your interpretation
of something
so simple
as dried ink.

So many thanks. So very true what you say! If it doesn't give you anything discard it. I also wanted to point a finger to the fact sometimes what it said between the lines is what speaks. As well as sometimes words are not enough, action might be required instead. I commented on your Michael Jackson poem, such brilliant work!
