We Write Our Words in Order to Give Them Away
Only connect
-Evelyn Waugh
All literature is
world literature
A culture that
hugs itself to itself
And refuses to
share and share alike
Consumes itself
in a closed loop, and dies
A mother sings to
see her baby smile
A farmer whistles
as he follows the plow
A poet speaks to
hear her words aloud
A seaman chants
his strength against the wind
All workers in
all languages create -
All literature is
world literature
