What You Tell Me

Minutes tick by
on the green cable box display numbers
My body
motionless
but my mind
racing

I walked into a bookstore in Brooklyn today
and a great sadness gripped my heart
How many pages
already printed
How many titles
already authored

I grasp at straws
and end up
with a mouth full of grass.
