            Languages are...

                        Fences, weapons, tense defenses;
                       
                        
Bridges, mirrors, the air that mingles;

                        Tingles of exchanges, entangled marketplaces,

                        Shifting faces, woven races,                       

                        Forlorn seas, daybreak pleas;                       

                        Tunnels into senses, eloquence of the soul.                       

                        Banquet of notions, potions of change.                       

                        Currency and passports, courtyards of accord.                       

                        Crossings of the fjord, hallways of the Lord.

                                     - C. S. Cholas   Corozal Town, Belize
