Simplicity


He speaks as one learned

He speaks holding a degree

He speaks using dynamics

He speaks having more knowledge than we

He speaks and is heard

He speaks missing a key-

He speaks lacking simplicity.

The cripple writes as a child

The cripple writes holding no degree

The cripple writes using no technique

The cripple writes having more wisdom than we

The cripple writes and is felt

The cripple writes using a key-

The cripple writes simplicity.
