One Word (Free verse) by T. Becquerel
One word Will destroy all Will loose the lives of many, and yet, Will resume life And filter its existence. One word Will take itself, Will read deep into itself, and yet, Will fight itself, And remember nothing. One word Will know all, Will give advice to many, and yet, Will remain calm, And be a bottomless pit. That word, Will be asked, Will answer without recall, and yet, Will still not know, And that word is I.

Down the ladder: spirit of a grama

This is a form I use sometimes, and is well executed but the last/solution line is a little awkward.

reminds me of that movie, "The Deep End" ... should have been called "The Shallow End" since she tossed the body in what was like 3 feet of water
