words

words
speak 
worlds into existence -
galaxies,
super novas,
and planets;
a universe
of particles, atoms, molecules,
quirks and quarks;
the beautiful and unusual,
the exotic and familiar,
the seen and unseen,
the you and the me;
the breath of life
in the form of speech
molds and shapes
that which can only be held
by the creative imagination;
handle these words, 
your words,
all words
with care
for they can also
destroy
in an instant
that which took an eternity
to build
