Word Trap
Words trap me
Saying No
When yes is meant,
Hiding so that I can not find
What it is I want to …… .
I stumble over them,
And among a jumble
Of incoherent sentences,
Meaning is lost.
Words trap me,
So sometimes
To get my own back,
I bite my tongue,
It’s a little like cutting my nose
To spite my face.
