The Shape of Words
I learn the shape of words and how they make
these things become so real by making shapes
and giving edges that will form a break.
The space between the words and things they name
are silences we fall through to the world
that spreads around us. Nowhere is the same
as where we stand between the sound unfurled
across the possible, that makes it real
apart from which unreality swirled
becoming like a ghost of thought we see
as shaping form around a space unnamed
and out of reach, beyond both you and me.
