a word spoken
a word
for the mere thrill of words
sounds vivified by meaning
as things that take flesh
collide
in the drama of two lives
unfolding
opening
***
the game of thoughts and ideas
communication for the sake
of saying
the whimsical nature of friendship
devout
important
of great worth and
yet kind of like beauty
in that it is utterly superfluous not strictly necessary
at least according to a reality based on cold production
it seems like a scandal, this excess of sentiment
produces nothing, goes nowhere
or rather, when it is at its best,
completely absorbed in the moment
forsaking the work of the future
for the free exchange
of heart speak-
ing
to heart.
