Language, the dress of thought,
words its buttons.
What are we trying to cover?
Nothing.
The dress interprets
the body,
its own reveal, skin and hair,
apparently lacking
something necessary
to complete the ensemble,
where sound means
stylelessly.
Dress, the body licensed
for use, the slow decay
its words describe,
its missing buttons.
