Not All Words Have Meaning
February 27, 2010
Not all words have meaning,
though all carry weight,
the knowledge is dead.
Your mind’s begun to fade.
Long ago, I wandered astray,
to meet the hangman,
with his friends at the Gallows pole.
“Take with you what you will”
he spoke to me,
and so to you, again I will say.
Words have a power,
to bring down the heavens,
or to make the rules of the game.
But they only matter,
If you care what I say.
You can take it in any way.
And if my meanings are hazy,
sorry, I’ve acquired a fog
at the gallows,
In days past, now long gone.
