Wise Ears Ahead

Our solemn hopes
have divided the heart
into gumdrops.
Or miniature horses
escaping on the free waves
of the vast farmland.
Pick up the receiver
someone is calling.
Say nothing,
but listen with your good ear.
Don't worry that your shirt
is too tight.
I hear the weather
is nice.
Revise the facts
or learn
some new ones.
