When spoken by the timid It evokes anxiety and fear Ruminating over how to utilize it And desperately not wanting to hear The dauntless utter it overtly Overconfident in prose and strength Never contemplating the consequences Keeps everyone at an arm's length A sentence this precise shouldn't be so confusing Nor open to the interpretation of its core "No Means No", as a matter of fact The brazen should use it sparingly, and the meek demand it more

NO...
When spoken by the timid It evokes anxiety and fear Ruminating over how to utilize it And desperately not wanting to hear The dauntless utter it overtly Overconfident in prose and strength Never contemplating the consequences Keeps everyone at an arm's length A sentence this precise shouldn't be so confusing Nor open to the interpretation of its core "No Means No", as a matter of fact The brazen should use it sparingly, and the meek demand it more
This one word, yet complete sentence, has definitely created strife and fear within me!!!
