10,681. CAUGHT WITH NOTHING

CAUGHT WITH NOTHING
The empty sleeve that holds no arms,
the jellybean with no insides. These 
are old-school conflicts. (We cannot
challenge what we cannot see).
-
Peace and distance are the two words
we know : learned by repetition only
maybe. When I was seven, I had a
Visible Man. Like me, it was unseen,
but totally there, only after you put
its pieces all together. Before that,
I never challenged, for I
could not see.
