Would you quote Shakespeare when in a fight?
Would you use Beckett's words to prove you're right?
Is what you say important in a fit of seething rage?
Can Byron's colours paint on your personal angry page?
Are words from Wordsworth worthy of your ego?
'sit better to throw Wilde than to just wildly throw?
Words, too, in fact can take a form quite terse.
How bloody would war be if we use Lennon's verse?
Perhaps what may work is to sometimes use silence -
The shrug of Chaplin's shoulders always held some poignance -
For the power of a word and just what it can do
perhaps weighed heavy on good ol' Moses too.
