Assessment Task 3: Project Milestone 2 : SUBMISSION OF COLLABORATIVE EXERCISE


Given the way to speak
she parts her lips only
to say what she can,
nothing.

Given the words to speak
yet withheld the words to express
she’d rather say
nothing.

She could either fall back into
the arms of humble practicality
or walk the tightrope of
self-expression.

To contain the voice of two tongues
is a burden to any mind but
to also cage two voices –
unbearable.

To convey her sense of hem,
how it feels to andas Swedish air
she is incapable, bound by logic
and devoid of
sentimentality.

To have that void is a sentiment
in itself, it says what it cannot say.
She continues to feel
nonetheless.

No matter what is scrawled on the
blackboards, written in the books,
there will always be the dreaded
choice.

To think or to express,
att tänka eller uttrycka
to visualise or to act
att visualisera eller att agera
Forked tongues.

Communication is not always
about receiving a message,
but an inability
to speak.
