Listen To Me
i draw my breath
for,
they do not listen to me
sat there –
as if i were a puppet
perched upon their knee
for,
they do not listen to me
their power –
is rooted in connection
it powers –
their upward trajection
and it defines –
what they may be
but i draw in my breath
for,
they do not listen to m e
sat there
as i were a puppet
perched upon their knee
maybe,
they could try listening to me
