Longuage

We stitch.  We wend.  The warp and woof (or weft).

We wept.

And made language.

 .

Because beauty.*

 .

If occasion is beautiful, we long –

Longuage.

Longing will depress

[equal and opposite force]

therefore, express.

 .

We cry.  Sigh and stutter.  Susurrate.

We long:  Compress.  Express.

And make longuage.

 .

“A thought leaves no print; leaves only the print of word in ink on page.”

–Dan Beachy-Quick

.

Without regard for Truth.

Aching willn’t analyze.

 .

Fact fail.

Re-memory.

 .

We perceive the beauty and we hurt

and know not what to name it –

object, emotion, experience,

response.

 .

Falter, wend,

Weave and prove,

Longuage.

 .
