LEARNING THE LINGO
LEARNING THE LINGO
sets a snare
for words
traps their meaning
the words try to
fly off into their world
she catches them on her tongue
she takes their sounds
prisoner
locks them behind her teeth
then she releases them again
their sense shackled
with understanding
her words...birds now
flying away into the farway
forests of the mind
