Voices In The Background
He stabbed her with words
self-esteem oozed from the wounds
and sank into everything she tried to do
until she did nothing at all, those words
though they still bounced inside of her
like a ball.

Last night I told my homie "Your tongue is a mouth penis. You have to learn how to use it, man. You will be evaluated en parallel per handling. Don't shit all over the speculation graph."
Apppparently someone else already knew that and used the avenue to spill into your head his demon-seeds of kudzu.

I'm getting the image of a human pinball machine here, Nikks. The metal ball can't seem to find a hole to drop from - just as it creates one it bounces off of it. Sticks and stones indeed - not.

Right - the old saying, 'Sticks and stone may break my bones but words can never hurt me' is bullshit ( unless you truly learn to not take things personally - then, and only then are you free ).

Once more epic ... The wounds we sustain inflicted in plain sight often ricochet inside re-injuring us over and over ... Sometimes we get lucky enough to find the right medicine from the the right person(s) to be able to finally start healing them ... Sometimes they don't heal ... Sometimes, in time we find they can become irrelevant ... you make me think ...Bless and much love ...
