To The Bonez sToned aNd Sticking witH it

Stone to the bone in the rhyme zone Outshone by the cyclone to the well-known from the unknown  
 Bricks and stones can be made into a home  
But words can huff and puff until it's blown    
Bones will heal from sticks wielded and stones thrown    
But words can hurt for a lifetime
 Sticks and stones have come and gone    
But angry words leave scars unbeknownst    
Better bring a big rock and swing a mighty thick stick    
If you got the stones to start a conflict    
Be very careful with each and every word you pick    
Sticks from a tree may hurt me Stones from the ground may knock me down    
But my profound words will make you drown    
Words can cut to the bone like a knife and quick    
Much worse of a hurt than any stick could inflict    
The tone alone can pack a lick and make you sick    
Sticks and stones may break my bones but your words may get your ass kicked  
   
"Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can also hurt me. Stones and sticks break only skin, while words are ghosts that haunt me. Slant and curved the word-swords fall, It pierces and sticks inside me. Bats and bricks may ache through bones, but words can mortify me.
