If I were to relate this to myself,
as I sit here next to a bright red
package of 20 hypoallergenic
Wet Ones.
Words...evoke inarticulate things.
—Rachel Blau DuPlessis
I’m sort of putting words in her
mouth. Just by leaving a few out.
So to speak. Or maybe not.
It learned to hide from the hungry ones.
—Shel Silverstein
Which is more to the point.
So bring me your mouth, youth!
Bring me all of your words in a jar.
