When I have nothing to say,
I say nothing
When I have something to say,
I say nothing
but I run home and
scribble something
in my notebook
Never, however,
is it what I meant to say
For example,
I wanted to tell someone
how I felt about
Covid-19 in the year 2022
I said nothing
but
—my head aflame with ideas—
I ran home
and wrote
this note:
NOTHING HOWEVER
is a great name
for a racehorse
