LISTENING
LISTENING
A.P.B.: Missing here!
A right ear and left ear!
No sign of whereabouts!
Relations in the pouts!
Listening: you go first!
Listening for heart’s thirst.
Listening for their mopes,
Listening for their hopes.
Listening for their thoughts,
Listening for sore spots.
Listening when they’re curt,
Listening for their hurt.
Listening for their strain,
Listening for their pain.
Listening for intent,
Listening: what they meant.
Listening for their dreams,
Listening for heart’s seams.
Listening for longing,
Listening: belonging.
Listening for heart’s wilt,
Listening for their guilt.
Listening for heart’s need,
Listening for heart’s bleed.
Listening for anger,
Listening for hunger.
Listening for their sigh,
Listening for heart’s cry.
