I found the words hiding.
Curled between my toes,
Itching with every step.

They are the poems.

Poems hiding in corners of mouths
Pulled upwards in a smirk.
Drifting through fingers
Of pleading hands.

Fingers running rough,
Feeling the raised edges
Of blank canvas
And listening to whispers
Of words indiscernible

But still I listen,
Blessed by ignorance,
Blessed by things I can't understand,
While my strained ears
Line thick with perfect words.
