Fourteen (14)

The poetry is something I'm missing out on.

I don't understand the words.  Not as they're being sung.  I can look at the lyrics and work them out.

I need to do better at this.  I'm missing out on a lot.

When the songs are sung in my ear as we dance, I can feel the poetry, and the shape of what I'm missing.

I'm missing a lot of information.  There's often a contrast between the words that are sung and the tune that is played.  I'd like to feel that.  I feel it in people I dance with who do understand the lyrics.

There are 14 lines in a sonnet.
