Virgin Languages
In Xavier’s virgin words for me
he adopts silence as his wards,
keys to his locutions,
and on the other hand I’ve been learning
his mother tongue.
It rolls out from my mouth like
a barbwire-spell binding us in our places
and feeding us with thoughts to free ourselves;
then I too cerebrate in silence.
