I look at an old book, words.
Words, so unfamiliar, of another language.
I look at my math homework,
What are these numbers and what significance do they have?
I watch television an try to focus,
What the news anchors are talking about, I'll never know.
I enter class, listening to the teacher,
All I hear is words, words that do not go together.
I talk to people, my friends.
I do not understand them, they are speaking an unfamiliar tongue.
