Out in the painfully bright sunlight
Among the wandering hordes of people--
How does one go about it?
Telling the tale, of what one learned
In the cave and the cathedral,
Of the sky and the ghost
And the death and the life.
Sounds like gibberish to my own ears,
How much more to barbarians!
It's caught in my throat;
I'm no linguist, no interpreter.
Blame the messenger, not the message.
