english tongue -- wigglish
a snake a fish
the grammar-bird flying over
the boundless melody
of liquid phrases
the hungry snake
the slippery fish
the bird of steel
demands the grain the pearls the words
english -- the rarefied mountain air
english -- a rock on my chest

Anonymousover 20 years agoI'm the first to comment. I really loved this minimalist approach to the English language as heard by the foreign ear.
