A Higher Enchantment


Is there anything language

can’t possibly express

 

Words falling short,

all speech in distress

 

Are there concepts so deep,

they cannot be described

 

To experience beyond

any speaker or scribe

 

A higher enchantment,

a deeper enthrall

 

The logic of which

is bereft to recall

 

Expression in handcuffs,

perception moves on

 

Searching the cosmos

—its melody strong

 

(Dreamsleep: December, 2020)
