.                   Tongue Tide


       They can, with their great

         engineering minds, dam

            rivers, silence babling

       brooks, muzzle often mute,

      muttering streams and gag

         the burbling waterfalls.


      They can channel canals,

    leach the lapping language

               from our  lakes,

       even bribe the rainbows.

But main street media can never

  redact susurrations of the sea.



For Julian Assange.
