Tell A Friend

on the day when my words
were earth
I was a friend to stalks of wheat
 
on the day when my words
were wrath
I was a friend to chains
 
on the day when my words
were stones
I was a friend to streams
 
on the day when my words
were a rebellion
I was a friend to earthquakes
 
on the day when my words
were bitter apples
I was a friend to the optimist
 
but when my words became
honey
flies covered my lips
