A Poem by Ben Taylor

As I ponder the blank whiteness beneath my fingertips,
I am frustrated that words refuse to drip from between my teeth.
My thoughts are tied to the syllables of your name.
And so I type it out,
Delete it,
And type it again.
Your hands are far removed,
But I can still remember you more vividly
With these words glowing anemically in the dimness.

Blank whiteness is unnecessary. It's already expressed. 'And so I type it out, Delete it, and type it again."

Also, "drip from between my teeth."

I would work on the this. Why would it "drip" from your teeth? Is it like a faucet dripping water? Is it ink dripping from your teeth? Think about this.
