Word-choke

There are words
forbidden
or let’s say
of the rather-not kind;
they come to lip
and back to throat
and I wonder
in these bovine days
if I might slip
and choke.

Communion Song

One story-flower to another,
anecdote to anecdote
the re-posting of favorite songs
finding breathing-space moment
grudgingly yielded by work-need
to text about silly things
like traffic and places to be,
things to do and things undone
the renewal of claims
in different languages
and summary dismissal
in anticipated one-liners:
this is our communion
our covenant in said-unsaid  mix.
