In A Word

This could just happen

if in one word

if we look each other in the eye,

if for the sake of another day,

if when we feel … no answer.

~

In this word

we seem bound by the

moment

isolate in its own

montage of distraction.

~

We are seeking that word

fulfills our heart

lights our soul,

it is one word

repeats itself after all.

~

On the road will

speak of dreams and fantasy,

staying alert in the white lines

of the avenue.

See that?

~

I wonder if in one word we could

find kindness, appreciate silence,

erase.
