Belonging

We human beings belong to language.
In language we love and hate,
we admire and despise.
We interpret our crises as individual and social.
We suffer, and exalt, and despair.
In language, we receive the gift of being human.
All the feeling, the thinking, the action,
and the things of the world as we know it
are given to us in language.
