Fingers at Fault



there, the byplays
of whimsical words in conceal
                  seek me seek me
they seem to cry
and my fingers are tapping
discontentedly

tap…tap…tap…

as if the rap, rap, rapping on a desk
or as if pen-tip to pad
tap, tap, tapping
will beckon, [one would reckon]
the pull and flinging forth
of the solemn sounds
inside my head

…                          somewhere, out there

an ellipse then plays, marking time
time will mark begin of when
when will ease a poem’s stretch
and this tap, tap, tapping
in my head

encompassed in the smallest dot
dot … tap … rapping away my day

faintly fingers finding favor
in displaying thoughts to ease
allowing continue to be present
in the passing
of words still to say…



and I find that I am pleased.

==========================


can I borrow your fingers?

loving the ELLIPS and the ALLITS....

tap...tap...tap on ...

theres as much chance of me giving up the elips as there is me writing a sonnet.

Ornery looks good on ya .

every time I talk to you its over too soon
every day feels incomplete till you walk into the room
just say the words, I'll jump that moon.

Nice, but too much ellipsis.
