Adam & Eve, Orpheus & Eurydice
cŵn annwn:
k-hhhh-n anne-wyn-
sue me,
the Welsh sometimes
hark
like a smoker of
tobacco harks up
some excess phlegm
after a momentary lapse
into coughing -
harking -
senile and bogus
English - and that spaghetti
h'american ęglish -
love by insult -
then again, not really:
love by teasing -
reign from above,
reign from below -
meeting in the middle
hinging on the letters -
not sure whether it's a K for the c -
or whether i'm invited to
use the Roman sigma -
the Gauls' cedilla -
çŵn -
ah, the Greeks, and their
orthographic aesthetics -
in the trinity of
sigma
-
ςŵν αννłν -
i'm still for enforcing
the reintroducing the grapheme
into the Polish concept of
its pompous orthography
for the less literate
graffiti "artists"...
and there are...
rz, cz, sz, ch
exceptions...
æ & œ...
Adam & Eve,
Orpheus & Eurydice -
just to make it "easier" -
the language could do with
some aesthetic
improvements -
given it's so concerned
with orthography -
and that's what you might
notice about the Polacks -
zero interest in metaphysics -
always the sort of
people concerned with
orthography...
no wonder Nietzsche called
us the equivalent
of the French, among the Slavs;
nice compliment.
