One Wrong Word
One Wrong Word
A word used in the wrong place
With the wrong inflection
Or with other wrong words
No matter how innocent it was meant
No matter what meaning you thought it had
It can cause pain beyond nightmares
Millions killed at the push of a button
Food and water denied or worse
A word used in the wrong place can destroy a world
But the same word used in the right place
With the right inflection
Or with the right words
It can save the universe
