Translation

Ways to communicate to translate to explain Form a question seek the knowledge to acquire an answer Choosing truthful depiction after taught to demonstrate make claim Languages methodical visual translations of opinion to learn Eyesight far and near on a body to read Differences when learning what is given to each unknown Translation of our true abilities an educated plead Vision pieced past filled with new life perspective to decode Breaking coded messages behavior analyzing what was fed Sixth senses intuition of the repetitive misrepresentations Neglected missions of proper explanations attempted failed again Image misinterpreted mentally misconstrued translations Spoken intervention speaking clearly a direction for humanity matters Linear composition that divides personal conversations with constant limitation Contracting consented horizontal thought focused on positive patterns Fractional decisions off judgmental habits a common basic of communication Rewrite of my poem 'To Translate' inspirational thanks to Ronald A. Williams

This is rife with alliteration, Kristina, and some nice ambiguity, (which I enjoy) ... thoughtfully-penned with a layered intent that plays with the imagination. Very interesting and fun. Blessings!

Thanks Silent One I was attempting a Sonnet and instead formed this. I find writing poetic forms more difficult than just free versing and rhyming. Appreciate the time you take to read my new pieces. ;-)
