Eight-line Poems

A Clear Poem

A Clear Poem

Look there, where the light reflects upon the page,
you might not see it from that angle,
imagine that it’s hidden from limelight on the stage,
don’t grasp it - better that it’s wangled.

Try squinting and gaze into the distance,
apprehension requires that you intuit,
so much depends upon the happenstance,
the problem being you can see through it!
