I know there be a mockery
I know there are concerns of bleed--
I know there is a debt of me--
I see things that no one sees.

I feel the piercing of my tongue--
chains of pain to keep me young--
as if a hole be part of me
as metal strikes a chord of free.

Hunger--is an open wound
striking harmonies in tune
rolling ball upon my tongue
assurance of the only one

individuality
recognizing
spark of me
silver ball
and hoop in nose
and all the love
I thought supposed
yes
Ecclesiastese

and all the words
I speak--in whole--
a yearn--
a burn
of love--
in need.
All earth turned
in dig of hole
a shovelful
of "bury me."

I can't say I understand this one, but it certainly has a fascinating tumble of rhythm.

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

Yep,
the teacher is still asking questions
and still sinking through six feet of dirt.

I love this, Sen.
