MISUNDERSTAND
when endeavoring to communicate to find the right
words
the story seems to spin out of my control
it is as if the words have hitched a ride in a spacecraft
and are
traveling the cosmos visiting
other planets
without
concern for their worldly meanings
angels tread lightly to avoid the lunatic words without
meanings
my words can get into such a tangle when they
disregard what i am trying to say
finding the right words to convey the meaning will forever be a difficult task
words can be slippery when it comes to meanings
spread
misunderstanding

I know this dilemma........some people interpret words through their own skewed perceptions. I so know the feeling of the words hitching a ride to an unknown cosmos, and a whole other language. Based on other peoples' misperceptions. Sigh.
And yet so clearly this wonderful piece reads....i hear...and it sparkles and glows but how hard it is sometimes trying to get certain people to understand what we intend...peaceful Sunday to you xo
The spread of the layout echoes the confusion over the wordle words. Veerrrry clever!
A feeling I know only too well!
Am in total agreement. I love this one...

I love this -- and it looks great on the page as well... what they call a concrete poem I think ... great use of the white space...cool.
