If by interpreting the voice of the other
a stranger on the street as that of the spirit
then the hermeneutics of language games evolves
into an art where words take on a new context
speech acts require insight to hear not the person
but to listen to what they say as the spirit
whispers oracular claims outside the temple
within the agora or open marketplace
where everyone is friend and no one a stranger
but foes act without words with infernal ice tongues
stab with burning daggers past heart into the soul
no matter the ancient battle scars you survive
into the present day moment at hand breathing
holding a newborn hare known as Mumble Bunny
