poem "words"

words --07.20.03 Sunday--

words have so much meaning,
yet so very few;
they can turn your whole world around,
or turn it greyish-blue.
words can be misinterpreted,
or possible misused;
we take advantage of them all,
when we sometimes come unglued.
words are for the needy,
and the rich top dawgs;
words corrupt the greedy,
and turn people into hogs.
words are used so perfectly,
when the moment's right;
but words can lead to tragedy,
and shatter out one's light.
words are taken highly,
and words are spoken strongly;
but sometimes words are not enough,
and taking action sometimes wrongly.
people punish others,
with a single word;
words can form the noose,
then words are no longer heard.
words have so much meaning,
yet so very few;
words are ofter given;
but so very hard to undo.
