Reverse Engineering Poem by Mary Champion

Reverse Engineering

Some things you can paint with words.
but there are matters that need a brush,
a hammer and chisel
or the tools of a woodcarver -
high end CGI -
at the very least - a camera.

Thoughts and feelings,
moods and impressions -
these you can paint with words,
but when the word has been made solid flesh
it seems pointless to reverse the process.
