She uses so few words
To say so much
Her verbal dexterity
Is as precise as a gymnast
Defying gravity with a flourish
Creatively observing each object
And every action and inaction
Rhyme, reason and contradiction
With the insight of the ages
Sculpting verbal works of art
That should be cast in bronze
Or chiseled from Carraran quarries
By some modern Michaelangelo
But instead
Even better
Her words are winged electric
Appearing wherever they need to
Now
And now
And now
To you
