Which is more important, to write or to read?
If there is only time to do one...
And when should I put down my pen, before my hand bleeds?
What if there are still more words to come?
How long should I rest my eyes on each of your lines?
Shall I linger and loiter, while you dream up a spoiler?
Return to that page where I found an old memory
That gave me a temporary reprieve from the chaos.
The chaos that invades my mind.
Words are a living amalgamation
Of experience, wisdom and electricity.
They can ruin a picture perfect day
Or transform devastation into consolation.
Words have the power instilled by God
They possess a command structure
Thou shalt not let these rows rot
Give these words their due, may God bless you.
Words: they sometimes have trouble being heard
Words: they vary from the witty to the absurd
Trends in town mean that some popular phrases are beaten down,
Abused and arrested, searched for and quested.
I need a few words that will get rid of my frown.
Give these words your attention if you please
Take a moment, just like when you sneeze
Wonder for a wondrous pause
Words can prevent disease like Yaws.
If one person writes while the other reads then the world would be more at peace.
