War of Words The GameA Poem by Beth LindsayPoetic way to combat narrow minded people.So you want to fight with words, it takes two or more to play Oh wait! that's right, I can't, because I grew up the other day If this is upsetting you I guess I could have a little play let's see what you can do But warning, whatever you may bring I will take it like a human Take your annoying attempts I'll still be able to stand My turn? Alright I guess I could explain Why this game is found annoying why it brings agony and pain Your words Although don't hurt me in anyway hurts the others around you each and every other day That isn't exactly right That isn't what gets me bursting into flames Its is your mind is so inhumanly narrow to create a thoughtless game you are like a de-evolutionist version of what settlers would have been burning innocent people at the stake for all the other's sins But i have no choice, I can't help but pity your kind for trying to live in these understanding times with your energy draining grudges with you unfounded hate with opinions that long since have been out of date Then again these words I speak they aren't me I live only to spectate and only to see the many colors of the truth hoping one day they connect to live my life to embrace them all and use them to reflect So I apologize in advance for letting you see the steam maybe you aren't as bad as your words makes you seem but all the more reason you should reflect On those narrow minded thoughts and how they appear pathetic That is the end of this round of this annoying game for now I must put out this burning flame I look forward to seeing on how you return Will you reflect? Or let your ignorance burn?
