WE DO THIS WORK

we do this work
and write the words
for the most part
misunderstood

as egos jump
to catch a phrase
and find themselves
a little dazed
 
as one word
cancels out the next
a wall is sensed
within the text
 
so how to fly
when caught within
the spider web
the mind does spin
 
to find that real i
that's us
in open spaces
cleared of brush
 
when no word
twisted turned or bent
can touch us
in the place we've went
