Every word uttered

whether
offered or obligated
spit or sputtered
graced or given grudgingly 

bears an impeccable pin
point
of potency

Some snuffed suddenly
others
an epidemic

Blaming--->

Stirring up
and
then
Taming 

Careless sentences 
strewn
over laughing lips

Reiterated recollections 
and
aspirations running hot
on alcoholic
raspberry breath

What weight
but
what worthlessness
what wastefullness

Speech is
an immediate line
to your
purest heart and soul

but

Without
consideration
we are wandering
the mazes of our
very conversation
 
My words and your words
whispered or shouted
were designed to be 
Dazzling

Not crammed in 
uncomfortable pauses

Not vomited 
with cruel intent 

but

powerful and
persuasive
Accounted for
and
appreciated
