The Unwritten

The Unwritten

Inside this book 

kneel words  that never have been written

never have been mentioned

never have been realized   We re wrote the poem by W.S Merwin

They're aware in there 

dark in the dark

listening

but they won't come out

not for fun, not for friends, not for games

even when the shadowy night has gone away 

they’ ll still be there

hiding 

hoards of people in time to come may walk through them 

inhale them

be none the wiser    

what words can it be

that they won't demonstrate 

In what communication

would I notice it

would I be clever enough to figure it out

to make out the real words of everything 

maybe there aren’t many

it could be that there’s only one book 

and it was all we need

it's here in this book 

every book in the world is like this
