A poem - This is Not a Pen

This is not a pen
This is not a pen
It stabs and imparts poison
As it pierces.

This is not a pen
It tears and scrapes across
All chasms

This is not a pen
It drips with sugar and spice
Words nasty and nice

This is not a pen
To write dark upon light
Oh no

This is not a pen
But my mind liquefied
Preserved in time

I know that since this is online, technically it isn't a pen/ink so much as a cursor or a little light/darkness on a screen....anyway, the sentiment remains.
