Words can change
Alternate emotions
And express feelings
Like how water slices
Through eroded rock
My words
Can cut people down
Like the depth
Of a canyon
Or covet someone
With a bassy coo
I speak with eloquence
And also with integrity
Words without purpose
Are blank words
Blank bullets
Harmless to a malleable victim
I speak in sanctity for
The essence of reason is to fight
Words change but should
Never lose meaning
