Please-do not look away, not
even for a second. I
am no longer sure how
to exist, I keep slipping
between the quiet spaces of
other people's lives, lost
between one keystroke and
another, lost in the void
between one spoken word
and the next, lost in the
emptiness between punctuation
and the capitalized letter.
If-
you look away, I will
vanish down into your
silences, become the
furtive shadow out of the
corner of your eye, the fluttering
shutter between one blink of an
eyelid and the next, so please, I
beg of you, hold me here, give
me form and shape and substance. Please
do not look away,
-not even for a second.
