"Introduction to Conversation"
  by Kenya in C


Words are weapons, medicines, poisons and foods
Finding the correct one
differentiates
soldiers from civilians
And surgery, from slashing
Those who have not studied the craft of conversation
Are dangerous fools-
Contaminated morsels of bread
So many times, we neglect to consider
What we are fed
Lips carelessly form
random verbiage
What is needed
Isn't even considered
starving people are fired at
Gluttons, offered more food
And solders
concerned only about killing a mood
Just wanting to make sure
The fool isn't me
I choose my words
Carefully.

That being said:

philosphical is right! We are way to gullible as it is in society being spoon fed "news" to hide deeper issues. I wish more people would take the time out to really have a grasp of the language they use so flippantly on a daily basis.

A very powerful piece filled with inner and outspoken messages to ponder and consider in regards to how we live, judge others, and see ourselves--10!!!
