Arrows


Arrows


her words arrows
straight and to the point
sometimes piercing hearts


her words are arrows
not meant to wound or offend
aimed at seeking the truth


her words sharpened shafts
shot into the dark to shed
light rather than heat


arrows can be words
lined up in people's defense
aimed at injustice


words can be empty
fake like rubber bullets
that still seek to maim


words can kill movements
of people trying to heal
centuries of lies


words words word arrows
a way to say basta ya!
loosed are  fireworks
