June Poetry by Colleen Jantzen
I sat today
Familiar spot
Coffee in hand
Working away
Casually listening
(overhearing)
To one bombarded by another
Words
Words
Words
Words
Words
Words
Words
Words
Words
Words
With scarce a breath in between
No space/grace for the one
Overshadowed as she was
By the other
Silence
Please
Silence
Leave a little space/grace
(would you pretty please)
For she has a voice
Too
