and those who wrote verse
were thought to be insane
by those
who seek only meaning from words

SONYA KASSAM 
Dear Sonya,
What a great poem!
Someone told me a long time to pay no attention to words, but to pay attention, instead, to truth and meaning, and let the words take care of themselves.
All good wishes,
robert

Just watch the words, hear them and feel them. That is their meaning.
