Words Reach My Throat
I am words
A vague poem
To twist your own ideals around
I am words
A remix of a dictionary
I am words
Sputtering
Stuttering
I am words
No logical order
No intelligent sense
I am words
All day dreams
And elusive things
I am words
Hurting the biter
I am words
A story
Without an ending
No climax
or big reveal
I am words
All adjectives
No nouns
I am words
In the figure of a girl
I am words
Failing to create meaning
I am words
definitions to no terms
Labels to no meanings
I am words
And a song in my bones
From long ago
Before words ever reached my throat

Very lyrical writing.
"I am words
In the figure of a girl"
A beautiful definition of the depth of your own expression.

"I am words;
All adjectives,
No nouns;"
This line really struck me.
In this world it does seem
as though that that's all that
we are... all adjectives;
whatever they choose to label us as.
An old saying went along these lines:
"You are living words, known as such
and read by every man."
As soon as people see each other, the
first thing they do is to start subjecting
them to being nothing more than an
object or some abstract thought that
they perceive them/You/I to be.
