Word’s Worth
By William C Ross
Scriptures on cathedral walls.
Graffiti scrawls on restroom stalls.
A word’s true worth is the thought behind it,
And poetry is where you find it.
Dark Day (September 2010) is the most recent by William C Ross to appear at vox poetica.
Ahhh. Profound, or profane, words have their meaning and their use. You’ve said so much in so few words,William C. Ross! Thank you!
I love the idea of the sacred and the profane leading to such a profound yet simple truth. Wonderfully done!
Simple lines on poetry’s walls. Nice one.
Wow, short and wonderful.
