Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

We Are Having

We Are Having The deafening stillness she made of the unspoken, as another example of my roaring disclosure, passes. As I look at her back of perpetual moving lips, I observe from following trying to learn of the unmentioned. As I maintain my diligence, conversations stretch in every direction, than the one I anticipated. I follow closely for my moment to spring into action, but not yet, as the senseless ramblings went onward, then silence--that happened at flank speed that I was only able to utter the word "What...", when she had told me a set of twins, then she concluded by admonishing me for missing the appointment because of an unscheduled conference at the corporate headquarters, ...and pardoned me while I remained in hysteria. 2019 August 24 *2nd Place* If only you knew ~~Silent One

I like to give a prompt and that is it... A lot of my poetry is formed after i have a certain thought or line in my head..
