Venom

 
Kind words are free; offered by the speaker
 
They edify, they comfort, they beget smiles
 
But words unkind cut deeper than a dagger
 
They hurt and destroy even across the miles
 
Thus, with your words be careful, vigilant ever
 
That what you say turns not into venom in vials
 
For words once spoken; retrieve them, never!
 
Alas! Even after a thousand denials!
