"THE MUTE WORDSMITH"

Government approved words
Fall from the page … the sky
With their own index
Catalogue a printer’s error

The human alphabet
That is penned in rehearsed
Vellum and parchment
By a grand versifier

Phonetic bells … your voice
With slow triple metrics
Are waves in the storm of all
Mind contents … reportage

The wordsmith … suffers
An aphasiac’s muteness
But declamation in his hiss
With an autocratic desire

It is all too necessary
To dramatise his limerick
And to address his typographic
Set of compulsions

End

Kirrill D'Kainn

    i have mulled this one over
    and i think i`ll put on the back burner
    and mull it over again
    like it tho,karrill
    but then i like most things you create

    Truth is within the freedom of the mind! Governments lie and try to blind the all seeing eye. They kill their own infront of the masses. Yet for the ones who look beyond the glamour of the bought NEWS the cracks truly show. “Steel does not turn into dust by the pull of gravity!” Love your words friend!!!…)o(
