A Word's Worth
Another combination of words
Or a new set of lyrics
Twisting adjectives to flatter, verbs to hurt
One more noun for what is
Or the next description of what isn’t
The flick of a tongue
The tap of a key
And the flowing, scratching, twirling, stabbing
Exploding lines
Of lead and ink and thoughts
Try, we do in vain, to find a better way
And though actions may speak louder than they
And though a picture may say a thousand
They are my companions, and -
Remember this: the pen is mightier than the sword
So long as one’s wit is sharpened.
This is brilliant. Although, I must say, I have been stabbed by many the...dull witted-pen, if you will. It catches one off guard when it's a close ally. E tu, Brutus?
