where words fall down and tears abide

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
