Magic in words
A phrase I’m sure that has been said
In many times and places
Media
Many languages
x
For it must seem that way
The way words can turn things
I suppose like many things
They have no value
Until applied
Character in the one
Who speaks or writes
Agenda, too
An open one shows fortitude
The hidden one a kind of cowardice
x
They can start wars
In fact, we have to say
They are declared
Then words are needed, after
In treating peace
x
There is so much more to say
Your turn
Use your words

Trying to find the right words has always been frustrating for me. I much prefer mental telepathy………if only I could.

Mental telepathy would be cool. Could be fun and (I shouldn’t forget) meaningful. Finding the right words to set down is a daunting chore. I guess we should keep going even through those words, calling it a rough draft, maybe.
