WordSwordsWords

Are your words weapons
    or wands?

As words fuse together
     they weave wor(l)ds
          both confounding
     and astounding,

sew stories
     where meaning meets myth,
          that stir your soul
               or make you sick.

a menacing sentence seeds
     tensions, while
          our lofty lens visages
     advantages
          and second chances;

flowing cadences rearrange
     molecules and shuffle DNA —
          remixing our fixings
     for a mellifluous
          choreography.

Let’s proclaim the reign of felicity
     and synchronicity,
          contain the rain of duplicity;
     affirm affinity
          and magnanimity.

Launch our words, like birds of pray(er),
     to lift all hearts.
