Well, Languages?

well, languages, you surround
the world as seas and oceans do,

so where will you take your poets today,
as they get into their homemade boats,

each anchored in a private bay? they will
sail and row into  your currents, tides, and storms.

languages, let them find the words they need
before they go back to their shores and take

what words they found, arrange and rearrange
them to compose the poems made out of them,
                                                  made out of you.
