These Words

These words that trickle down the screen could not care where they have been what role they played in famous verse a speech a curse or something worse it matters not to words like these if they offend or cheer or please they do not mourn a love betrayed or wish a friend who’s gone had stayed nor on their progress to the bottom care one wit if they’re forgotten but rather like the drops of rain that slide across a window pane avoid the fate of being part of some dull poet’s heartfelt fart leaving on the dirty glass ghostly symbols as they pass.
