    RETURN of the Forked Tongue

     Speak carefully sir
    Tongues have hung enough men

    Bend truth of steel

    Split promises clean in half

    Created scandals that have dismantled empires to shambles

    Manipulated masses to genocide

    Plight to perish of a wet guillotine

    Fiend of favors
    Savors the moment when harmony disrupts

    Loves a misunderstanding
    And nonsense rambling

    Words that don't serve

    Can you call it communication

    Loud voice raising

    I didn' t hear a thing

    Bringer of frustration
    Eyes buldge
    Check ya pulse
    Rapid Running Rampant
    Like a rabid dog

    Creates the impenetrable fog

    Use choice words sir

    Just one can be taken as RUDE

    Food for annihilation

    History is the proof.

    I totally feel you on the effect that words can have. Choose wisely or suffer the consequences. This very good.

    In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.
