A piece of chalk

I know that sometimes
it seems like my lines are too fat
that I use too many words
to express what I’m trying to say
Maybe you like reduction
The guys who say nothing
and everything
and maybe you think
he’s doing this on purpose
he’s rebelling against minimalism
Obese poetry
or some motto that’ll stick in your head

But you’re wrong

I’m just trying to tell you something
and I write
Until I feel you’ve got it
