Words carry weight Sometimes you can even see The strength and immensity of their power I’m reminded of wizards and sages Who spilled over their voluble incantations Illusions made real by voice and rhythm With lips and wisps and flowing tongues Chords and cords plucked and strung Watch carefully now as lives lean to and fro At the immeasurable strength of words

Chords and Cords (or Reasons to Use the Word "Voluble")
Words carry weight Sometimes you can even see The strength and immensity of their power I’m reminded of wizards and sages Who spilled over their voluble incantations Illusions made real by voice and rhythm With lips and wisps and flowing tongues Chords and cords plucked and strung Watch carefully now as lives lean to and fro At the immeasurable strength of words
Most of my lectures start with, "Words carry weight."
