Misunderstood

I don't have a favourite poem, but as I have written a lot of poetry, I thought I would use one of mine.

 

words are difficult

things to swallow

transparent

huge

and choking…

I can think

into the air

but the communication wires

shake with electricity

and break…

I can feel

and you might grasp

halfway

what my lips

are trying to say

but can’t…

I can speak

but my tongue

confuses things extremely

unruly creature!

and you turn

in embarrassment

at something that should have

reached you…

I can touch

in hope

that inner reachings

might become attached…

because

words are difficult

things to swallow…
