Words

We placed all the words in a bucket

Some symbols, sounds and characters

We had no idea what this would do

We weren't trying to create something new

Had no idea but had a clue

Wasn't anything else we could do

But it changed everything we already knew

Now we thought we would be able to communicate with a few

But this concoction changed our view

We thought out of it we saw something that grew

No idea how to make it right

Maybe we would have done it differently in hindsight

We thought it could be a fixed type

Not much we could change try as we might

Thought what we did might have been to our advantage

This is what happens when you have mixed language
