Bend your middle and ring
forward
Hold them to your palm
the rest, they stay up
and now you brandish
a weapon of a sign
outloud can rock the world
roll off the tongue
and kill whoever hears it
can it
it can save your life
can it
it can’t save your marriage
can it
it can make you feel better
a weapon of a sign
disguised in soft tones
for the tongue who refuses
to form
three simple words
hold it up to those around you
they know by now what you mean
you won’t
can’t
say it
hurts to type, speak
form the shapes
with lip and tongue
your hands don’t hurt
when you
hold middle and ring
down to your palm
and sign silently to
the people
who can’t get your
voice to work,
not even for them,
I love you
