"Sanity in the Stillness"
by Heather K. O'Brien

 
Paper Life

As I look down at it
I can't help but to wonder...
Do I look as blank?

Could I possibly look as badly in need of utilization?
This seems to be taking a downward swing.
But what do you see when you look
At a piece of paper?
Work waiting to be done,
Pictures waiting to be drawn,
Letters yet to be written,
Poems, songs or short stories to be told?
Or nothing more than space to be filled?
What do you see?
Look at your life... As if it were a piece of paper
Think of what you might do with this space
And fill it up.
