what if


what if the use of a gun was 

the writing from a pen?

so what is literally being said?

from whom, to whom?

is this what diary-writing would look like?

is this what is on a billboard 

in someone's mind?

do all suicide-notes have to include readers?

is each of us original composition,

looking for a script presentation,

a ceremonial address,

a personal manuscript read to a public?

how did isolation 

become the proving grounds?

when did this original composition

become a series of run-on sentences,

reduced to one word, 

repeated loudly,

over and over

until the spokenness reigned out

as the dead of silence,

reading to itself, 

out of ink?

when does say no more, 

say so much more?

so why do we have ink

if we can't have legible soul? . . .
