Words are Inert
(inspired by Waking Life)
Just as words are stationary blocks of emotionless
symbols, they are also kept neat and clean on stacks of
stationary
paper
where
someone
has
dedicated
themselves with vulnerability to pour their soul out,
hoping to connect with another being. Even after the pages
have been read and seemingly understood, they continue
to lay dormant, for all we know. Even after claiming to be
cognitive to those who may have lightly grazed the concept
of grasping a deeper meaning behind the nonphysical
descriptive words. Though, we never truly know if people
are able to comprehend the impact of what is felt behind
the words written or being said because words are neutral.
Neither positive nor negative.
