without the Soldiers of our Alphabet
Consonants surrrounding vowels
as sky surrounds birds
without these soldiers
we can't make words
Subject, verb, object–
they know their position–
adorned with adjective
glued with preposition
Grouped, huddled,
bunched, muddled
Consonants surrrounding vowels
pregnant pauses from the brain
from the bowels
Honor & love our alphabet
It is all we got
It is all we get
Valiant ingredients of the alphabet
mix them dry mix them wet
Our Twenty-six letters
have no betters
Bullets for the guns in the war against silence
communication is beautiful violence
Humans breathe
we need air but don't forget
words breathe
through the alphabet
We say them
we see them
let the participle hang
We say 'em
we see 'em
let the slang bang
