Allies

I am rusty in French
and you speak fluent Spanish.
Let’s build our tower of Babel
right over here, and throw our
words out the highest window.

We will accomplish great wonders
with the silent diligence of our hands
and the blueprints of our bodies
aligned one on top of the other.

We will find similarities where
they supposed us to be asynchronous,
and use our complements in a united effort
to do what they told us could not be done.

May love rule.
