Latin. Foreign. Rarely spoken.
Most useful when casting spells.
Yet, common words in vernacular
Are suitable
For every spell and every lie.

Quiet, silent, effective, yet,
Never seen as what it is.
Words: love, hope, faith, grace.
All quiet and silent, and hidden
In religion, deceiving words.

And in every sentence
Every sign, are words that
Injure and leave us blind.
Under the bed, the hiding place,
Lies every lie, in vulgaris lingua.

Simple. Clear….never understood.

Innocence cannot be afforded
