Illiterate
Standing in waiting
-the bell rings
-'Danger' is what it means
Light goes off
-it arrives…
On her face
-below two eyebrows
-Two sockets host the eyes
Is petite as if child
-below or early teens
-is in size, but far more
-seventy to eighty
With white hair …
-a Chinese old woman
-is laughing…laughing mad
-happily confused…deeply sad
Scary…
-film noir…
I see her
-lost in box
-as if ant or fly
-inside a honey jar
Unaware of buttons on wall-side
-she had pushed the wrong one…
-seeking help
-not knowing up and down
'Illiterate is blind! ! ! '
-said people in my town
-I agree; I agree; I agree
Illiterate is blind
-as she to the signals
-of the life brought in…
