You

i call your name aloud...this time...
not carefully in lyric rhyme,
but shrill and all too recklessly
devoid of pretty poetry:
“YOU!!!!”
…but penned, as spoken words, from me
are each the same: futility.
(“…you….”)

Your poem summarizes the failure to communicate that we experience too often. Love the way you get straight to the point! Nice write, Steve. Love, Carolyn
