...A Poem by Ookpikhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ou-rVp6EbhM. I think sometimes that its better . To save one's words for when they matter. . . So many people waste their words, . Mince them or manipulate them, . That at times I feel its better . . To have abstained from giving them at all. . . I think sometimes, that it's wiser to wait - . . To hold the sentiment in the back pocket, . Like a wrist watch or a tissue, . For a moment when its lasting affect . Might prove to be of more effect . Than had you chosen to deliver it et al. . . There are so many moments in this life . Where words can alter the fabric, . Butterfly a course or interfere with its magic, . And I think then, knowing the precariousness of the action, . That it's better to be mute, anticipating the occasion, . Than to scribble haphazard hindsight . In the hopes that they might find fruition. . . . How silly a thing it is then . To write something like this down. . .
