Rani Turton - Words, Like Tools

Words like tools, are my expression.

Words, unlike theories remain
For generations to come.

The universe will change, gradually
But words, like tools can express

Emotion and expression, and remove
Unnecessary lingering worry and stress.

Before we are we were
Now we are we won't be;

That, then, is the crux of this theory.

Words like tools lie idle near my hands
Pass through my mind
Insubstantial phantoms
Here and then not there
Never alone but living in isolation
Until total cessation.
