The Questioning

by Rob Littler

Think of the person
Who wants still the regret
Of having said something
In the first place, knowing the vast understanding that must be met
Before being understood…that there is need in him
To be made to feel grace
In the face
Of it All—
Again and again
Defending the space
Between desiring to be
Or not to be.

I hear both empathy and ambivalence in this one. Searching... well... questioning. Thoughtful piece, Rob. Thanks for the artistry.
