Translation

05/20 – sometimes I scan magazines articles to see if I want to dig deeper and they feel like poems – this is a poem I call Scan and Pick poem (in the order words occurred) from a New Yorker article this morning:

multilingual childhood

between languages

find myself

untrammelled lyrical

linguists Ay-Speak

unabridged original form

never my parents speak

brother and sister

Op-Talk polyglot skills

oppressor-parents avoided

velocity and refraction

give Pig Latin a try
