Poem in Englhec

My poem, "The Sound" translated into my semi-phonetic rendering of
English as I speak it. This has been through several corrections, and
I believe it now to be correct.

Incidentally, suppose I ran history backwards, so that Modern English
evolves into Middle English, which loses its French influence and
becomes Old English, but with the twist that Modern English begins
with a semi-phonetic spelling system as I've described which is
subsequently inherited by the 'ancestor' languages that have to make
do with a spelling that doesn't match their phonetics, as we have to
in this universe?

Anyway...


Hzi Sawnd

Ue hei hzi sawnd. Hzat semphl fraez ántwuenzh
Sie mutc, fo tez hzi krue ov komplháks muendz
Hzat, meksd wehz koos reallite, kreaett
Hzat longheng úodj, hzat suellint skreom, 'iskaepp'.
And yát, ef ue kód gruosp hzi wúoldz ue puos
Hziez desthint wúoldz mo pleozeng té mue huot
Hziez landz ov sawndz mo pleozeng té mue ei
Hzán stel wehzenn me hzai wód flie hzeoz teiz
Wetc streom ilongh hze enshued ov mue faes
And splac sie lawdlhe en hzi deoppist plaes
Ov ool. Hé haz hzi pawi té túon mue nák
And foos mue uez té fiekkis, not niglákth?
Hzi hsoot etsálfh brengz emmidjiz eonuff
Ov krakkeng bienz, and hzán i fuennl puf
Ov bráhs from mue itámpth at wot ez luef.
Stien gruendz on stien, and té, iponn hzi nuef
Hzat, cuoppind, senks yát deoppi enthé me.
Mue hsoots hzae gruend igánsth reallite
And hzes brengz foohs hzi huoccist gruendheng sawnd
Ov ool. Ool ue kan dé ez true té drawn et awt
Wehz sawndz mue huot maeks deop wehzenn.
I myézzek ov mue ien, hzeoz moonfhl strengz.
But wot prues mue rileoff? Bue dae ue rást
Mue so and tueyhid hád iponn mue dásk
Figátt ibawth hzi hsengz sirawndheng me
And dreom ov mue envezzibellite
O áls ov soorreng hsré hsi plázzint ai.
Mue mássidj té hze úohs ez, uem not hzai.
At nuet ue set distúobdh, diprásdh, beokozz
Ue kuont figátt hzi waesthid dae hzat woz.
Ue kuont figátt haw tuetlhe ue am bawnd
Bue hzeoz iléojjinz. Ie ue hei hzai sawnd!
But ov mue tosd and trueyhld enni hálhs
Ue fuend mue ienlhe hiep ez hiep etsálfh.
