Rrrecite!

Words

coded, encoded, decoded

Without the "reader"

Only an author knows their possibilities

The reader finds a riddle

It's a pattern

Who decides the sounds

Are those arbitrary

"Follow the pattern." Says Gabriel.

None of the prophets are sure

We could just mine it out

Or step it out in a dance

Perhaps that's what the shamans were want to do

We won't know if we got it right

Until it echoes back
