Uncontainable By The Bondage Of Words
/Uncontainable
By the bondage
Of words
Its nature
Is unexplainable
Nameless
And
Formless
Yet more whole than
The even most perfect
Analogy can imply
To say it acts
Is a lie
To say it is
Is a lie
Even to call it ‘it’
Is a lie
Yet it acts
As it is
And as it does
In its way
Unfathomable
And unknowable
To everything
Other than itself
This
Despite its
Impact being
Forever felt
By everything
Or
perhaps not
As its very nature
Invalidates these words
As well as your interpretation of them
This poem is from the book, ‘A Requiem For What Could Have Been: Poetry For The Broken’.
