Languages, words -
with such an abundance of both,
who can be heard ?
I'd rather be mute
and then my dancing hands
would conduct a concerto
of literal language.
I'd rather be blind
and then communication
would be a tactile reverie
beyond deception.
I'd rather be deaf
and then silence
would reverberate with THE SUBLIME WORD
that created speech
and I would recall what a miracle
is the inadequate,
but enthralling
vocabulary of being.
Languages, words -
best served
when our souls are speaking !
