The Words Fail Me

The words fail me I've seen too many sunsets Too many dawns Ignored to many moons Words fail me Today the subzero cold Days and days of subzero cold All I can say "Too cold." Words fail me Then this afternoon Off with my gloves Turn my face to a February sun Resting above the shoulder Of Clinton Hill brownstones I feel the sun Sun on my skin Warm, ahhhhhh A neolithic word Without entomology From any known or forgotten language Ahhhhh Words fail me But never syllables After all I am neanderthal___ ps huh is another neolithic word
