Lavender

They sit there quietly

Unobtrusive to the world outside their thought

Writing or reading but always being

Speaking with a quiet confidence

A flick of deviance

Quick to quip a wit retort

Passing in hallways

Straight to classes

Giving worth to the unexamined life

You're not the wise fool

You're not a fool

You are aware of yourself

And you thrive, revel in your invisibility

I see you

I know you

Straight through classes

You're passing in hallways

There's note in a silent gaze

A quip, a fool

I see you

I know you

He sits and it's okay
