What's in a word?

Boxy letters? Flowing calligraphy? Cramped in style? Choose your weapon  The battle begins Each warrior calling upon their language To wound, to beat, to kill Choose your weapon  Ruby lips and light violet tongue? Wooden stick full of graphite? Clicking buttons labeled with letters? Choose your weapon  A weapon, you say? Why not a healer? Peacemaker, fair judge, bringer of good tides ?Why a weapon?  A holder of peace Knowledge Joy Inspiration Release of stress For some, their life  Decide for yourself Are words your weapons of mass destruction? Or your keys to a greater good?
