The first poem was short. NOWADAYS Whatever you say, let the roots follow, let them dangle With all the dirt just to make it absolutely clear where they came from Make it absolutely clear where who came from? I read it again, and then I realized it was referring to the roots of words. That is, you should display the roots of words and the dirt around them to make it clear to those listening where the words came from. So, talk coarsely, or at least don’t be frightened to.
