Words Can Be
Words Can Be
A Barricade Or Bridge
Written: by Miracle Man
5/13/2020
Words become as brushstrokes on a painters palette,
spread as paint, at the volition of the artist.
Whether smooth, colored, sincere, or acerbic,
Those intended to hurt are always the tartest.
All words have power to be barricade or bridge,
we dispense words in anger, then oft question choice?
As days grow old, we attempt, our tongue to bridle,
Inhibiting words once spewed, from an active voice.
