Scalpels Like HacksawsA Poem by BenI hate facebook notes these days. I have to look for an hour to find anything meaningful or interesting to read in the multitude of trash that is often posted. And if there's one thing I hate, it's the misuse or abuse of language.So much spoken and not so much said, I feel - that we use scalpels like hacksaws, lining letters up and down promoting and though noting, we note not with thought, and with naught intent. We like to make lists because we are listless. And too often we note noise and not music, noting noise as our music, discarding all things unapparent as we become numbered noise, no longer sounds. And though some search for sound, noises make null all sounds we may sing. © 2009 Ben |
