Barely Heard Through All The Whispers

Barely Heard Through All The Whispers

 

Pray hush now

and listen

can you make out

the words

being muttered

into beards,

through teeth,

across tongues

and over gums

around the world ..

Well then,

be sure to note

each one

of these I choose

to share

with you today ..

Expressed,

handed down

and otherwise

conveyed, that is ..

Between one old

forbidden

lover and another ..

Now barely whispered ..
