Languaging Again
I have been languaging again,
I am always languaging,
or languaging about languaging.
And still I feel I’m languishing
due to inadequate languaging.
I wanted to go
where only the ghost ships went
but instead have gone
where even they wouldn’t.
A line is indefatigable,
but the speaker of a line gets tired,
wears down, needs to rest.
You have dismissed my life's work,
but I am safe in my life's play.
