That Fatal Urge Linguistic

Language is an overreaction
to confusion. Silence would
have suffused the silence with
the answers that did not need
to be sought. But here we are,
they say. Now that there is a word
for both who and where, we need to
deal with this thing we call our
situation and these people we
call we. Language is an over
reaction to confusion. Verbs
already played out, without
signifiers or signers. Subjunctives
could not hang over their junctions
because the information was stored
without that gourd, that cornucopia
of dread head. Language is a reaction.
Language is confusion.
