Words, I beg you

by Fig   Dec 11, 2005


Words are infinitely undeclared as they flow
Words are just words and words and words
The crushing of mouths
Words...
Millions of empty nothings
Infinitely drained vacancy
Don't know me through my words
Please
I beg you
With these words of mine
These spatterings of sound
these noises of nothing
For that is all they are
Words dripping like ice,
sharp spider-shards
pierce heart through ears
or spit that steam
hot hissing hurt
from your most elocuent mouth
what words?
so rarely soothing
water from your lips of life
So breathe out those sounds, as solid as the bitter
Morning mist from your lungs,
Those eloquent words
I don't know how you can know me
Just do not know me through my words?
I beg you.

    Your words usually are spatterings of sound tho lu and they totally rock!!! :D You were nominated for the award of best made up word of the year at Hol's Pols and u sooo deserved it! But then your words always mean so much to so many of us (including me!) cuz they're always so wonderful and loving and in that way we most definitely can know you're brilliant person and fantastic friend m'dear. Anyhoo I'll stop wittering now, i only wanted to tell you how amazing your poem was and now I've written an essay!
