I must confess I have no ear for poetry
But perhaps if you were to read me a few verses
I could come to enjoy myself
It's not meter or measure which I prefer
But the superior cadence of your unhurried voice
I want your accent, your vocabulary
Your idiosyncratic pronunciation of common words
Speak assured
Say the phrases as they come to you
And I shall find something I can love
