An animal approached me <br />and tried to say something... <br />I didn't speak his tongue, <br />so I couldn't respond. <br /> <br />Loneliness beset him, <br />like a flame in the dark. <br />It occurred to me then; <br />I'm exactly like him!<br /><br />Michael Fischer<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-language-barrier/
