forget that i'm short for a minute
forget the haircut the eye color
the way i'm dressed
and the expression on my face
take a minute
the sixty seconds that entails
forget the television set blaring
in the background the radio
the telephone ringing
where you have to be and
the distractions
you seem so caught up in
an earful of hearing
listening more so
currently occupies the space
you're supposed to be in
so take a minute
the sixty seconds that entails
and look see the person
don't frame box cut or
assume that the occupied
space is filled with what
you though you knew
since your knowledge
has failed you at some point
in the past
in that minute
the sixty seconds that entailed
did you forget who i was
in relation to the occupied space
