White.

White.

Blank.

Unexplainable.

Explainable.

A drop and then nothing.

Empty.

She says, I just need you.

Understandable.

Not to be explained.

But, there are deep emotions, baby, he says.

Unexplainable.

Explainable.

Indirect.

Hidden.

Secrets.

Speechless.

I wish there was more to this poem...but I think part of its appeal is that there isn't. Interesting read!

What a satisfying comment.
I can understand, I am frustrated too.
If I explained where my head is with the words stated, no, nevermind, I am frustrated with them too- I climb into it and it devours me. Around and around again.

I agree. :) Thanks for coming over.

I am frustrated by this poem, in a good way. And not to sound like a new critic, but its “organic unity” is very effective for me. I think the words drawn out slowly are frustrating, like "A drop, and then nothing." The simultaneous parallels are made much stronger for me in this form--choppy, short and bold. Its great, I read it slowly and several times in a row to get really frustrated.
