sub-verbal

internally shifting, moving around
insides quaking, yet making no sound
it isn’t difficult or horrible
it is something sub-verbal

feelings instinctive, primally gained
from deep in progeny, animal pained
instructive and still undefinable
and definitely something sub-verbal

inside the species - from the beyond
moon, stars, planet, the mask we have on
persistently hidden, humanity jumble
though memorable still sub-verbal

sub-verbal. interesting. yet how often things are 'said' by tone, body language, hair rising on the back of your neck, the look in the sky.

Wait. What? said...

I really loved this.
