Think Of A Word
Not just any word
Rather the word A
Also known as the
“A”* word
One of two letters
In the Alphabet
That are also words
I cannot think of
The other one right now
I am playing with A word
Are you picturing it as a letter
Or just hearing A as a sound?
Where is it? In your mind?
Or your mind’s ears
(The ears that hear without ears.
Scream A in your thoughts
No one else will hear A peep)
Are you seeing A with your mind’s eye?
Is it there, or could it be in your heart?
It is in the middle of heart
Also, near the middle of earth
Same goes for breath
Heart, earth, breath and all
You have to do is b(e)
Now that you are
Contemplating A at word point
You realize A is always there
Where you need it to be
Kind of like (this is a stretch)
A subatomic particle
Being observed through
A Hadron collider
It is only visible / audible when
A is being observed
Same goes for the word
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
It is just there floating around
Till this blog post
Made you recall it, also
By the time you finished reading it
Were giving it that sing song recitation
Of when you first heard it when
Dick Van Dyke and Julie Andrews
Sang it in Mary Poppins
This is just my own Hadron collider
Round about way (get it? Round… collider.)
Though I didn’t really intend it
Think Of A Word
Was heading in a different direction
Yet, fell into my well worn path
That the correlation between
God and word(s) The Word, always exists
Even the “A” word
“In the beginning the Word already existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God.”
John 1:1
Eliminating the “beginning” part
Whilst trying to figure out
A linguistic way to express it
Without that story line narrative
Deeply imbedded in our
Collective un/sub/consciousness
Through religion and science
Via popular books and useless theories
That when everything always is, IS
The necessity of a demarcation
Divine or developed
Is counter evolutionary
To our own collective evolution

“A” word
Unlike the “N” word, used to distract adult children from facing a racist reality not actually addressed, due to the distraction.
“They’re only words. You can’t be afraid of words that speak the truth, even if it’s an unpleasant truth like the fact that there’s a bigot and a racist in every living room on every street corner in this country. I don’t like words that hide the truth. I don’t like words that conceal reality.”
– George Carlin
Seeing as how words make up reality, not to say, there wouldn’t be racists if there was no word for them. However, language is our reality and reality is our language.
“Just an observation,
Maybe I need
Different glasses.”
