White Chalk
Thursday, January 11, 2007
If our imaginery
pie-in-the-sky
great creator
were a sidewalk chalk artist,
some lives would be sketched
white chalk on white sidewalk.
Such lives would entail
the same joys and sorrows
as do the colorfuls;
but who would see?
who would know?
except for
the white-on-white soul
struggling
to remain
invisible
and
forever alone.
