Just Words
Just Words....
Just Words... They Say
They say... Just Words
These Jackals and their cackles
These Hyenas and their chortles
These words which slay with every key stroke
These words which vilify, contorting all perception
These words which stalk with dangerous fear
These words which give voice to genocide
These words which command believers
These words which personify society
These words never have been just words
Just excuses
Just reasons
Just barriers
Justifying falsehoods that words are just words, with no consequences.
Just words which are just words to you,
Just words which are a death sentence for me.
