Oops

words
like sticks

words
like stones

words
like guns



I too
need a warning
label



I should
heed it too



I throw my words



and now
and as then

they misconstrue



symbols drawn
are not always
symbols seen



I am as a child
with stick with stone with gun



why wont they get up again mummy?
will sorry help?

oddly painful. as if remembering some thing unpleasant that happened in childhood.
