38. Discretion



The language of disguise and dreams
in delicacy and in understatement
is the web of poetry
in which each poet is forever lost,
since he has too much to express
and finds that cloven tongue of ambiguity
far too applicable to ever be abandoned.
Add to this a knowledge of a higher language still
in which the inexpressible find touch and tune
of higher than a mortal note,
and we can break all records of discretion.
