Fundamental they touch us deep inside
Tell us of passions, they act as a guide
A way to express how we think, the way we feel
And understand what is false and what is real
Full of vitality they instruments of pride
Apart they are oft weak, no identity of their own
Once joined, a force from which realization is grown
Enchantment to the wielder who employs his intent
Those who receive them often don't know what is meant
Diversified to interpretation they mean many things
In the recipient, is where the intent lastly rings
Powerful they have seen to many an empires' fall
When used in the right fashion, they are gospel to all
They can shape the events of mankind's demise
Then out of the ashes make civilizations rise
They can bring evil to those who heed
May give riches to those in need
Infinite in there potential, they are often intractable
Precise in their meaning, remaining ever adaptable
Fuel for the fire that burns in our souls
Tools to help us, in achieving our goals
All encompassing in their use and manipulation
Is the use of the word, in its' intimate association
Douglas A. Walker
