The Little People

I collect
casual compliments in a matchbox
And lovingly sun them sometimes.

To cross,
I go under the fence.

If I chance upon pearls of wisdom
I can take home only one.

I hate white light.
I run the world.

I read this over and over again, touching, tasting, running it around my mouth. And it still resonates.

There's a poet in you to be reckoned with.
