Honorable Mention The Words Michael K. Adams The words and the meaning, Oh dear God, the meaning! Twist them, bend them, try them sideways, grab the words and make them sing, of love and beauty, ugliness and truth, the words. Caress them, stroke them, kiss them with deep kisses, ply them, pet them, sculpt them like wet clay, but they work two ways, the words. They seduce you, you know. A sequence, a phrase, lingering, sighing across your brain, like satin on your skin, a lover's hand in yours, the words. The hunger, to shape, to coax, to love them into place, the desire for more and better, the release when it's all down on paper, the anxiety of "What will they think?", the words. |
