I erase and erase and erase
without ever
drawing
I think I think I think
without ever
dreaming
I sit and sit and sit
without ever
standing
I write i write i write
without ever starting
this poem
he moves he moves he moves
without ever
approaching
and crying crying crying
without ever loving
but I sure did like Henry
