Watch your language

Words weave in and out of our lives

Hold the power to tell truth or lies

Can build a bridge or a wall

Spoken in foolishness they divide

Conveyed in understanding they unify

This is why I carry a dictionary by my side

Disassemble the literal meaning

Enfold in modern discourse

Watch to see if it holds its burden

For there is no hiding intention in expression

Misuse reveals their mark

As much as missing lines are a sign

A stranglehold has prevailed in silence

Soundbites are shoved into mouths

Conversations are polite scripts

Nothing really matters

Truth is greeted with disbelief

History is re-written

Ideologies run on repeat

Until they are believed

Narrowing options

Knowledge is lost

Watch your language

For it is the thread that binds humanity
