can i ask you something?
when i do, could you please say yes?
"no."
but i haven't asked you yet.
"no."
and i get so tired of receiving negatives
after negatives -
and my skin falls off when i get
invisible yes's - you know, the ones that
hear you but ... never reply.
i don't know now, i'll probably never know why.
lately, those double and triple negatives
have been spilling rapidly upon my ears
and eyes .
i think it's about time
i close them and
keep on passing by.
