Nothing is knotted together so tightly that it cannot be undone
Unless you are searching for an end
Then it may never be found

A teeter totter goes up and down with ease
Sometimes it sits perfectly still
Balance
The laughter stops
Left in awe
Do you dare move?

Words have rhythm a heart beat they
Dance around you
Envelope you
Create thought and feeling
Through thought and word
I am handcuffed
trapped by syllables and diphthongs

I use words to move you
Make you pause, catch a breath
Wonder
Take hold of the moment
Throw it away
Pull it closer
You choose to read them
Feel them
Wonder
