A test

A test

A Poem by Consuela Burke

This is a test
Of the emergency system
The weight and measure
Of how you listen

It's the fairest metric
I've divined
To measure desire
To know my mind

I need a test
Enough removed
From the way we talk
From the way we move

Something I can point to,
My proof when I say
You had a real chance
That you let slip away

I've been as clear as I can
That I want to be found
I left a light in the attic
You can see from the ground

Just enter the house
I've opened the door
I'll light the whole room
If you want to see more
