Language feels concrete but sometimes I forget how to use the right words

 

Words happen in pairs like opposites

Binaries

 

I don’t know if I like it

Because language might be a spectrum

 

Letters combined become words

Words have fabricated meanings

Fabricated meanings feel absurd

 

I’m absurd


Maybe water is actually pink

The sky is actually green

And colors are dogs

Cats are cars

Words are goners

 

Most of the time I can’t explain it

I feel selfish and selfless at the same time

Everything all at once

 

It’s difficult to express

 

So language is now a spectrum

Words are rainbows
