(单词翻译:双击或拖选)

Too volatile¹， am I？ too voluble？ too much a word-person？

I blame the soup： I'm a primordially²

stirred person.

Two pronouns and a vehicle was Icarus with wings.

The apparatus³ of his selves made an ab-

surd person.

The sound I make is sympathy's： sad dogs are tied afar.

But howling I become an ever more un-

heard person.

I need a hundred more of you to make a likelihood.

The mirror's not convincing—— that at-best in-

ferred person.

As time's revealing gets revolting， I start looking out.

Look in and what you see is one unholy

The only cure for birth one doesn't love to contemplate⁵.

Better to be an unsung song， an unoc-

curred person.

McHugh， you'll be the death of me —— each self and second studied！

Addressing you like this， I'm halfway⁶ to the

third person.
