One Thing That I’ve Learned...
In This Wild Crazy World...

Is That Some Words Can HURT...
If They’re NOT Well Observed...
And Are Used To... PERTURB... !!!

So This Piece of Rhyme Verse...
Will Speak About Words...
And How They Can UPSET... !!!
When They’re Carelessly Said...

Now I Know That I’m One...
Whose Use of Words STUNS...
Like A... SWIFT Ali Punch... !!!!!

But That’s Because I...
Use My Words Like A Knife... !!!

Cos’ I Don’t Like Fist Fights...
Guns Or Using Big Knives...
To Destroy Peoples Lives... !!!

I’m A Lyrical Guy...
Whose Standards Are HIGH...

But Sometimes Being Clever...
With Your Use of Letters...
Can Create Vendettas...
That Clearly Don’t Better...
Our... Relationships... !!!

Sometimes A Smart Quip...
Can Make People FLIP...
If Their Timing’s NOT Right... !!!

So BEFORE You Speak THINK...
And Maybe... Hold Your Lips... !!!

Or That’s Right Yes Your Tongue... !!!
Before Your Mouth Runs...
Your Words Into TROUBLE...
That Then Leave You Humbled...

Because Some Are HURTFUL...
Just Like Vicious Circles...
of... IGNORANT Verbals... !!!

Unlike Those From VIRGIL...
Or That’s Right BIG VIRGE...
When It Comes To My Verse...

Because I Reserve...
My Verse To Use Words...
In Ways More Discerning...
Than Those Undeserving...
of Being Expressed...
Because They Lack Sense...
And Are Said To Cause Stress... !!!

Like Those That Are Sent...
By People Through Text...
That Simply AREN'T Clear...
Or Are Sent To Breed Fear...

Or Those That Don’t Send...
The Words That Are Meant...
Because They Are RUSHED...
So Are... INACCURATE... !!!

In What They Address...
Or To Whom They Are Sent...

And Then There Are Those...
That Are Thrown Out Like Bones...
By Those Throwing Stones...
From Inside Glass Houses...
That QUICKLY Are SHOUTED... !!!

When They Could Be SAID...
In Ways That Present...
A STRONG Argument...
That DOESN’T UPSET... !!!

But Here Is The Thing...
That Needs To Be Linked...
To The Words That You Bring...

If Someone’s IRATE...
Cos’ They’ve Had A Hard Day...

Just One Simple Sentence...
Can ****** RAISE TEMPERS...
BEFORE You Can Say...
That You’re Sorry... Okay... !!!

And In These Strange Days...
of New Viral Complaints...
Heads Are Bent Out of Shape... !!!

Due To NOT Getting Pay...
Or Being LOCKED AWAY...
In Their House Like Some Slave...
For... Day After Day... !?!

So Take Time To THINK...
BEFORE Running Your Lips...
About ANY OLD Thing... !!!

Because Words Can Cause MORE...
Than A... Lyrical War... !!!

They Can Leave People TORN...
And Willing To SCORN... !!!

When They Are REJECTED...

Due To Someone Expressing...
Some Thoughts NOT Collected...
That Then Start INFECTING...

The Mind States of Others...
Who May Start To BOTHER...
Like VIOLENT THUNDER...
Or... VOLATILE Lovers... !!!

Cos’ It’s EASY TO CLAIM...
That Your One Whose Humane...

But It’s... Easier To...
Let Your Lips Run Too Loose...
When The Things That You Say...
Show A LACK of Restraint...
And Good Use of Your Brain... !!!

Everyone’s NOT The Same... !!!
And Will Have Different Ways...
As Well As... BAD DAYS... !!!

So Sometimes It Is WISE...
To That’s Right RECOGNISE...

NOT To Jump Down The Throat...
of A Person You Know...

Because Maybe You DON’T... !?!

And Might Use The WRONG Tone...
When They Are Feeling... Low...

If They’ve Done Nothing Wrong...
Just Let Them Move Along...
Without Coming On Strong...
Or Running Your Mouth...
Before You Find Out...
That They Are Feeling Down...

Cos’ They May Just REACT...
And Choose To SNAP BACK... !!!

Instead of Stay Cool...
Like The Calmest Folk Do...

It’s All About Finding...
Appropriate Timing...

Because Words Can Breed Fighting...
And Things Quite Unsightly... !!!!!!

If You Don’t Do This Thing...
Yeah That’s Right...

...... “ Use Them Wisely “.....
