A Word for a World

Words are never just about words

Words are a world of their own

A world you and I know a lot about, we think

And yet know absolutely nothing about it


The Holocaust was born out of words as much as every Nobel Peace Prize speech

From the formula of building a bomb to scripting poetic justice, it's all words and words alone

It takes words to love, it takes words to hate, it takes words to grief, it takes words to rejoice

And yet, we think words exist for us, but do they really

Or the matter of fact is that, we merely exist to put words to purpose


You'd tell me, what a thought

And I'd say, WORD!
