What's the real meaning of this part of a poem? [closed]
It is a part of a poem by Ntozake Shange.
i live in music
live in it
wash in it
i cd even smell it
wear sound on my fingers
sound falls so fulla music
ya cd make a river where yr arm is &
hold yrself
hold yrself in a music
What is the meaning of "I cd"?
Thank you
It's worth noting that the questioner has accurately transcribed the unusual spelling of the poem i live in music. Ntozake Shange is an established poet, who has deliberately spelled this way, for this poem.
"i cd even smell it" is clearly a deliberate misspelling of "I could even smell it".
