Prisoner of Words

Spells, charms, incantations
Be careful what you say...
The magic of words enfolds intention
Centuries of knowledge
Layers of experience, an entire history
In a few syllables.

Our lifetime is packaged inside us
As imprints triggered by words.
Wrapped in words the way a
Spider wraps flies in gossamer
We are both the spider and the fly
Imprisoning ourselves in our own web
