so much speaking
words of life are
words of life
out of your mouth
both blessing and curse
the wounds you intend
and the sweet wound
the ornament of words
promises woven into a cloak
the whisper of memory
the cold hand of regret
the hot flush of shame
soft kiss of forgiveness
the war of attrition
eyes wide open
the subtle gesture
the faint whiff of grace
the sharpened tongue
the intimidating roar
the gift of flowers
a gift of song
you already know the words:
speak
to the mountain
