( )
it is subtext-
feelings twirling, nervously
like hair wrapped round
a finger,
trapped in two of these ( ).
wondering.
'do thoughts sound
the same when spoken?'
'are jokes written or
do they unravel in the
moment?'
phrases trip like
figureskating bricks
on icy lips.
it's all subtext,
wrapped in parenthesis.
feelings twirling, nervously
like hair wrapped round
a finger,
trapped in two of these ( ).
wondering.
'do thoughts sound
the same when spoken?'
'are jokes written or
do they unravel in the
moment?'
phrases trip like
figureskating bricks
on icy lips.
it's all subtext,
wrapped in parenthesis.
