The Written Word

is a Magical Thing;

 

Most Actions,

however,

are Boring…..

 

From Action, some say,

    one lays claim to fame.

 

I’m sorry, but that smacks

    bassackwards.

 

 

In Words, which are written,

    Languages, spoken,

Concepts, Percepts, Ideations;

    in these! 

to me seems, 

    we create the Names.

 

    ~

 

William H. Bonney

    had nowhere to go;

but, Words

on a page

    made him legend.

 

When Written and Read,

real Words then get Spread

    through Language

    and mis-ideation.

 

Thus, then it flows,

    though sometimes

goes slow;

 

but then, changes

    in manifestation.

 

In One Life, adored;

    another, ignored.

 

All the while

true action

    unknown.

 

 

No One can know

true action and deeds,

    eventhough

    the legend,

well written,

    misleads.

 

No One Knows,

    Nor does One care;

 

but still,

best beware –

 

Such fine Words indeed:

Caveat Emptor, Heed!

    was Written by someone,

    somewhere.
