A Poem a Day (306): Procrastination

 
Procrastination
 
I haunt pages,
stand around, loitering,
stare at empty words,
an interesting nothing.
Lines and lines
drawn like parallel gates
or solitary paths
pointing to a wisdom
unwritten here.
 
I loiter.
The word is small
but spreads its ending,
seeps into the margins
where it all hides,
these untold stories
and spectacular insights
waiting to be told
trapped in the fold.
