The power of the mouth, the power of the pen,
words that lose, words that win;

Oh how powerful a word in action, once it is said,
it's permanent, it's done, there is not retraction;

Speak in tune to darkness, it manifests itself,
speak words of light, conquests in wealth;

Words of judgment require no defense,
for there are justifications for every offense;

Written word spoken selfishly, inner eyes,
words made new from old that tell lies;

A poker face erases true emotion,
the word humanity is now just a notion;

"Biggo" fat lies, a man's new rule or two,
words advertised, twisting flesh to rule;

Words contrary, abuse contrived to scars,
good words create, created Heaven - Mars;

Penned words of great detailed expression,
gather truths and make fine suggestions;

Careful is a word seeing it's way thru, raw,
A man's argument, his expression his law;

Let us share our words, an experience or two,
taking people to places of Wisdoms so cool;

Escaping realities, words to thoughts wild,
the spirit and soul of feelings written mild;

When spoken and written word is true,
it produces many more words to renew;

Printed letters, words of the spirit and heart,
much easier than adjectives that tear us apart.
