Where words fall down
and tears abide
where words fall down
on their journey
they initially have impetus
for going forth
their exit is styled
from a launch to a hurl
yet time
is as the chaperone
yet an embarrassment
by association
as if words would eventually ride
weathered and recycled
loaded in the trunk
words
so dependent upon context
for their blossom
presence and bloom
are a false entitlements
put forth without
the live-ins of the neighborhood
while tears
in that they are both face launched
appear in their birth and release
to be as more easily embraceable
by the soft pallet
of their tai chi appearance
by their humbling
in honoring gravity
by their subtle alchemy
in preparation
by their manner
of presentation and accompaniment
tears pull rank
by revealing
and being closer to the source
words can lay down dormant
in the mind-room
their murmurs and vagaries
gather towards meaning
often from slurs
that have a speaking engagement within
just words on their own
walking on the treadmills of the brain
that recognition then anoints
like a narcotic of permission
a stimulant
towards a celebrity status in self-aware
mechanical beneath belief
but prodigal in usage
corralled and pooled
waking towards animation
forming consensus
and leaping from the plain of spoken
vaguely flashing
a glittery reflection of their soul
while tears
even without word accompaniment
are replete
and capable of showing wonderment
are they their own sanctuary
in pooling into form?
they are as their own messenger
even without deliverance
sacred
by their self-resourcefulness involved
verbal meaning
not needed to be brandish
for a show
tears in their bold timidity
forthright but obscuring
always presented bare
upon a face of unavoidance
in their silent back-story
a suggestion
of impending floods
what is there that words need
to learn from tears?
that pedantic insures
and cultivates a land of isolation?
that there is more to sky
that backdrop potential?
that they as carriers
are also ambassadors of their soul?
and what they potentially possess
as method of oneness
is a given
in their quality of reception
as they provide
as they too
are from that origin
truly beyond what means
way beyond
from where words fall down
and tears abide
