Notes About The Poem

SILENCE BETWEEN SECONDS

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ the hush of a clock’s halted pendulum. the breath a streetlight holds before flickering on. the weight of an unwritten letter. the ache in a dial tone’s hollow. a rumor of rain that never falls, a door left ajar for no one. the absence has been waiting.
