Words

                     Words can be  
                               haunting
                            and
                               daunting
                            and
                      go anyway
                            you like.
                      Like a spike
                    in the heart,
                             or a dart
                           on a chart!
                      Be careful,
                     they can chill
                            or kill
                                   thrill
                             or
                                  spill
                      your blood on
                              the floor
                               or more.
                    If you let them!
