if only i could

 if only i could


underground rivers

that break to the surface

        momentarily 

before diving underground

again

the saw is cutting 

hitting the knots of yesterday 

reverberations jar thought

welsh en english y welsh 

they would call it

but neither speaks the other

except in the issue of rivers 

for they are from the same earth 

words may come 

from minds that are biased

the dark side has words 

whispered in another language 

in another universe

the lament is still

  ‘if only’

i could speak the language

i could

you know you know i would

if only i could
