The Language Poem by Robert Creeley

The Language

Rating: ★4.5


Locate I
love you some-
where in


teeth and
eyes, bite
it but


take care not
to hurt, you
want so


much so
little. Words
say everything.


I
love you
again,


then what
is emptiness
for. To


fill, fill.
I heard words
and words full


of holes
aching. Speech
is a mouth.
