The dictionary,what an instrument! Human beings spoke without its need To gather up our words , define and count Literacy, slow in its intent, Began to spread and offer its rewards The dictionary, what a fine event. Yet there are obstacles we must confront As words begin to rule and to divide. So watch your words , define and always count Sadly language turns malevolent When those in power use sentences to lie. This dictionary,what a grave event. And more when it is used with ill intent Orders sent to murder the despised; Gathering Europe’s Jews for death’s torments. Elsewhere on our earth more genocides Scapegoats suffer,live our suicide The dictionary, what it represents: Scholarship to murder or disturb
