Poem -

a small piece of paper

a small piece of paper
with ink on it
a little piece of paper
passed hand to hand
lined paper
like any other
but so different from any other
with its words
words written that carry the force of a sleeping iron 
how that piece of paper can move
can elicit
can release suppressed things
one piece of paper
looking like all other paper
one like no other
like no other small piece of paper
on this entire Earth
a little piece of paper that holds
something for me alone
for me alone
me alone
alone
