Words get in our way

Words get in our way, perhaps
especially written words
it is difficult for us to know how
ancient peoples thought
about how far away was the sun, the planets,
G-d
fifty years from now, will people
express in their new ways
the same frustration with being
unable to know how we thought
–we ancients–
because our words kept us from
thinking, being, touching
our selves,
each other,
them?
