you are only meant to speak more plainly

What has happened? 
language eludes me 
the nice specifying 
words of my life fail 
when I call 

Ah says a friend 
dried up no doubt 
on the desiccated 
twigs in the swamp 
of the skull like 
a lake where the 
water level has been 
shifted by highways 
a couple of miles off 

Another friend says 
No no    my dear    perhaps 
you are only meant to 
speak more plainly
