we don’t own words

they own us
make us
what we are
in our heads

how we say
what we are
is what is
ever possible

& others use
words however
& we can only
control self

owning no words
outside cranium
owned by words
aspirated & not

sticks & stones
may crumble words to dust
but words weigh
crushing lives

a million repetitions
bend & shape & sway
make way, make way
words rule the day
