The Secret Inside Poem by Stephen Bennett The Playjurist

The Secret Inside

Rating: 4.0


when you eventually do let me
get your attention
probably
you’ll be backed up
to a wall, corner or cliff edge,
get yourself turned
upside down and shaken
until your valuable things fall out
and hit
the ground there
in front of you. I catalog,
count them and put them all back
in your pockets as you watch
I pivot away, take one step
then turn my head back and wait
for you to ask
what does this mean?
