BS be trippin'


What are words anyway? If you won’t listen, can’t listen, can’t hear above the consumerist cacophony ringing out your ears bringing out only the very worst in you, a phony. What do they mean to us? Those who shun them, abuse them Can’t use them Properly Ineffectually In effect: dis-communication. We are our words. We made them. We own them. But we need to own up to them without taking a sideways trip to lies and misdirection. C O N N E C T I O N is the way to correction.
