Overheard at Booth 4: Needs

NEEDS

everyone
has so much need.
need to be touched, need
not to be touched, need
to be seen, need
to be left
alone,
need for speed,
knock-need,
need for music
need for poetry
need for love
need for drugs
need for coffee
need for some
hit of some
thing
just to make it
through the
day,
need to be appreciated
need to be adored
need to be entertained
need to have something push all
the right buttons at all
the right times in all
the right places,
need for space
need for silence,
need for sunshine,
need for rain,
need to be free from pain,
need for the kids to shut
up
for once
and stop
tearing apart the house,
need to go into a
rubber room and scream until
all the screams have been
screamed out and there
are no more screams left,
need
to have
no
more needs.

A need
to be
needless.
