Paucity … Sharp

Today’s word is “paucity” … smallness of quantity; scarcity; scantiness. (Dictionary.com)

Sharp
Broken conversations,
A paucity of space,
Ideas that are frozen,
Glaring face to face.

Neither understanding,
How the other thinks,
Wondering how it ends,
Neither one will blink.

Toe to toe, unblinking,
Each sure he is right,
Hoping they can settle,
Without a raging fight.
