Language
We created a language in which we communicate ideas and advancements
We created a language out of abstract sounds and shapes.
The same language that can enhance us not only as people, but as a species!
Isn't that insane?
The fact that 26 little shapes have become what we refer to as the alphabet.
The face that these shapes have been categorized into our literal building blocks into words that are also abstract sounds that have carried us into this conversation and I into writing this free verse poem from late night conversation with again, abstract sounds!
Insane! The abstract sounds have created the same sentences and stanzas in which we poured our hearts out into as poets.
We create and we reiterate with these sounds.
We can even make them rhyme around the same sound called a syllable, these words could kill in their natural form provoking an emotion that creates more words poking and prodding at the next's heart strings right in their very body!
And they wouldn't even know what hit them, the abstract sounds triggering high school memories instead of their previous happy thoughts.
Words. Words can..
Words.
