The Difference Between Writing and Speaking the Words Out Loud <\/em><\/h2>\n

by George Moore<\/p>\n

Things that wants most to be said
\nnever fits the names we choose for them.<\/p>\n

I scale it back to the love hate loss<\/em>
\nof grief endured. The languages of clay.<\/p>\n

Men of clay. A heavier light filters through
\nthe pines here at dusk. How do you say it?<\/p>\n

Nothing performs well before a strange god
\nmissing a heart.<\/p>\n

Spoken in many tongues, but they are flesh,
\nfrenulum, noise-anchor, blood vessels,<\/p>\n

taste buds. The perfect but sacred text
\nare the taste buds. Writing<\/p>\n

is a silence on the stillness. The surf below
\ncan only be imagined. Rage for order.<\/p>\n

As easy as falling down stairs.<\/p>\n
