![]() I Forgot How To SpeakA Poem by p.kuhl![]() so I write instead![]()
As I
toss my cigarette, I look down at the accident on the page in front of
me. A mess of letters, scribbles, numbers, and symbols lay before me,
and I can't help but smile as I dot my last "i." There is something so
satisfying about completeing a thought, even one as chaotic as my own.
It doesn't rhyme, it doesn't speak, it doesn't make any decisions; it
only yearns to be read. The penstrokes mimic an artform lost long ago,
but they speak in ways no man ever could. Like a field of wheat, the
words move as they stand still. If only I could say it out loud, then
maybe you could hear how my heart feels, maybe you could see my soul.
Maybe, you could save me from myself.
