Every word
@yonar on Twitter
They give breath
Carries thoughts
Betraying barren minds,
Toxic like a garden
Where even grass
Cannot take root —
Words commanding;
Thou must.
Thou shalt —
When I know
I should not.
Empty threats and promises.
Duty.
Honor.
Obligation.
Mortal words
Meant to control
Any numb enough to listen.
Why would they mean
Anything to me?
