a letter to the world

This poem is my letter to the world
Letter - World
that never wrote to me.

A letter is not a Poem -
Can a letter be a poem?
Can a poem be a Letter?

This is my Letter
and it is a letter to the world -
it is waiting for an answer
and the answer is not coming.

Answer waiting
Letter writing

This - yes - is my letter to the world,
a world
that Never wrote to Me.


Inspired by Emily Dickinson's poem "This is my letter to the World" (no. 441, Johnson edition).
