All the Best Words
When all his best words were taken
Teased apart, twisted and broken
He knew then, there was nowhere to hide
…
When all his best words had been written
Examined, considered, copied and forsaken
He knew there would be no more light
…
When all his best words were spoken
Sung, whispered, screamed and then shouted
He knew then, he must learn how to fight
…
When all his best words were stolen
Torn apart, twisted, bled dry and finally crushed
He knew that the end was in sight
