STAR KIDS ad inf

Your eyes are too big for your tummy

quoth the rhetorical mum;

Your words are too big for your mouth

retorted the mini four year old without as much as a blink.

So much for personal remarks

• Uncouth, 

the culture might deem -

or Adorable, Smart, Cheeky: whatever the system saw fit.

The moral of this micro-tale:

Don’t DO it!

Words are two sided swords,

their motive, lethal or loving,

• whether conditioned or conscious -

are quintessentially all-telling. 

Wherefrom?

The grit and stuffs of Earth,

or walked-in from fiery Stars?

Who cares!

They live down our very own streets, 

 infiltrating our xenophobic lands;

indwelling our homes and hearts,

as beacons, elixors, templates and lodestones

to challenge, advocate and treasure

being-human - galactically.
