The Thing Of... Poem by Jacqui Broad

The Thing Of...

Rating: 5.0


The thing of writing
is, you always stand a chance
to offend someone...
The thing of talking
is, you can never take back
what you have just said...
The thing of singing
is, you can make an ice cold
heart, weep suddenly...
The thing of thinking
is, you can always think what
others may not know...
Communication -
it is the way we carry
over, how we feel...

great poem. our thoughts are like our private world that we can keep entirely to ourselves if we so choose.

It is a soft tap, compared to bludgeoning of a world without literature. Someone will always see our words from an odd angle, but that is just it, they see from an angle we are unable to imagine.
