Blabberings from Babel : Language

written by Poet : EC


Words in a row, amassing power
still importunate and presumptious
pushing forward, making themselves seen
how inadequate they are
always pointing at themselves
don't speak the truth
reborn through connotations and fashions 
the language re-creates itself
grows young and new every few years
becomes meaningless to the old people
blabberings from Babel
turn loved one into strangers
