TRANSLATION 

Translation from another language
can be tough - but tougher still is
figuring out gestures, signals, itches,
body language, holding hands,
a look with our eyes or teeth that
grab our lower lip - but our mouth
is saying nothing. How long does
it take to translate what we really
want to say to each other - or maybe
we don’t even know ourselves?
