Everybody's First Poem

Everybody's First Poem
By Andy Martello


"Did ya hear the one about..."

"When E.F. Hutton talks, people listen."

"I hear singing & there's no one there."

"Listen...do you want to know a secret?"

"See me. Hear me."

"Listen my children and you shall hear..."

"Hear ye! Hear ye!"

"Listen to the music."

"I heard it through the grapevine."

"Listen to me now and hear me later."

"Heard it from a friend who heard it from a friend who heard it from another you've been messin' around."

"Listen to your heart."

"I hear ya knockin' but you can't come in."




With so many people listening, why can't anybody hear me SCREAMING?
