The Command of Words
The command of words
is a powerful tool
a double edged sword
Keep it sharp
it hurts less
but cuts deeper
be careful where you swing it
you might be
swinging it at yourself
Because words can be quicksand
be careful what you put on the paper
it might suck you in
interested
trap you intentionally
with unintended meanings
words are ghosts
angry ones haunt
you forever
words are paintbrushes
creating
works of art
but no one
sees it the same
way as the author, the painter
Be wary of misunderstanding
or over-interpreting
words can be bald
but they’re always bald - they have no hair
things might mean what they seem
you can’t say I didn’t warn you.
