I hear the words coming out of my mouth
Their sounds reverberate in my ears
And I understand them
But within the space
from the time my words leave my mouth
and reach your ears
Something happens
I’m not sure what it is
Perhaps it’s some supra natural force
That is yet undiscovered, undefined
That changes them mid-flight
Into something unintelligible
Something pathetic
Something ridiculous
Something other than what I intended
