'Speaking in Tongues'

"You speak in tongues..."
so said that Maiden Fair

"Thou knowest not what was sung"
for I'm just a vessel layed bared...

"Hast thee at all, any recollect? "
she queried further on,  curiously stout
" Not until the script reread,  I inspect"
for I'm just his vessel thru voiceless mouth...

"From whence will you be expunged from servitude?"
her depth of questioning, entrenching deeper

"That none may know their time, when it's upon them,
a stance... not an attitude"

for I am simple, a tool,  his vessel,  and he my keeper...
