The Truth About Words

 

Just because my tongue gets twisted

doesn’t mean my words are,

so them pointing at you

becomes an illusion.

Paralyzed sentences keep the verb

from becoming a threat

to the noun being stereotyped

by the adjective.

Speaking softly doesn’t limit

the distance a thought travels,

it just makes any reaction

a ghost in the ruins.

Within the simplicity of being emotional

lies the complexity

that makes up the human condition.

So don’t let the alphabet

become a mathematical equation,

it will never add up.

This is a clever piece of writing! I like the part about the parts of speech. You just play around with them until it gets all jumbled up in your mind. It's tricky! And I simply love the ending lines:
So don’t let the alphabet
become a mathematical equation,
it will never add up.
It's awesome!

Very clever indeed Dale, see, you don't have to worry about your message being misconstrued when you yell a lot. Love it. ;-)

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Thank you young lady... I will scream and shout and let it all out.

[Frieda P]

My pleasure Dale, it comes naturally to Italians, you must need an injection....

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Yes give it to me now, I need it!!

[Frieda P]

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

I can imagine.

Ahh just because I don't speak loudly doesn't mean my words.aren't important. Just because I don't say anything doesn't mean my feelings.aren't profound. Just because my word.get.twisted.doesn't mean I have a limited vocabulary it simply means you have a stellar effect amd affects on me. That is what this piece says to me

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Very interesting interpretation, I like it :)

Sometimes our emotions effect our speech in many profound ways

Yes, Dale my rebel! I loved it! "I'm in language a fan of the "adjective" it gives always more color to the whole sentence...." But this write is a spectrum, it is even more minded boiled, and thought, than some can... You're such an ingredient to a dish of words. For me you're Garlic, It can smell as a rebel, but I am addicted to it :D in every dish I shall find you (almost every dish)

Thank you.

from becoming a threat
to the noun being stereotyped
by the adjective.
