Discovering Langston

By Gyasi Burks-Abbot

It’s a word that can serve
as adjective,
noun,
verb
in the same sentence.

It’s a phrase that can express
awe,
contempt,
regret
depending on context.

It’s a place that can be
for living,
loving,
dining,
dreaming
with no change of set.

It’s a tool that can push,
pull,
assemble,
dissemble,
while maintaining its shape.
It’s Simple really.
