Listen to poem:

Poetry - My Lethal Weapon

Poetry can be a lethal weapon especially if it goes to print 
With all of the words immortalized forever, in indelible ink

I can pass away, but darn those words will forever remain
I can render pain greater than a gun or sword could attain

Poetry is my lethal weapon and, I have come to use it well
I can use it to raise you up or as easily send you all to hell
