Succulent
"canine"..."canine"...
"bicuspid"...say "bi-cus-pid"
.
"molars"...aloud, say "mo-lars"
.
...go ahead...sink your teeth
into the enameled words
use your tongue to roll
them from cheek to cheek
feel them budding in your
mouth, the very words of
your mouth sound rising
from your jaw up to the
timpani of your ear and
into the heart, well ok,
the mind of you, your now
now say "succulent"
..."suc-cu-lent"
how nice the juices flow
the lush U...tangy T
..."suc-cu-lent"
once heard, a juicy word
forever remains
inbrained in us
even if we haven't thought
that word for years...years
it'll come flowing back
"amatory".."am-a-tory"
"sparkle"..."pleasure"
"distinction".."moonlight"
..."hesitation"..."plenty"
"serendipity"..."beloved"
all the melody and memory
that each brings to now as
it flows, vibrates according
its own sound vision..."cool"
