Words


Words are, of course, the most powerful drug used by mankind.
                                                                            - Ruyard Kipling

Words
they captivate,
titillate beyond anything
ever perceived through eyes
mortal, divine. A lifetime’s beatitude
encapsulated eternally amongst a single word;
so unpretentious, yet with power beyond imagination.
Single word; containing ideas, philosophies, thoughts.
Inspiring men, common, extraordinary. Revered
ecumenically amongst pedantic, erudite.
Omnipresent nevertheless modest,
innocuously lurking
words.
