Pencil

An object made of wood, lead, a crown that encases a rubber piece which is called an eraser by most.....

An object quite parallel in design in structure to that of the human anatomy without the leg and arm appendages, but the pencil does have the ability to walk in writing, when not in use lay dormant until placed in operation by authors bearing thoughts and visions.....

An object for which ideas, thoughts and emotions are transferred by the authors mind and hand.....
A pencil is harmless when dormant, just as the gun.....
Its in who and how we use it for it to be deadly, cause injury or fun.....

A pencil can be held and caressed by the gentleness of mental calm and stand.....
Or snapped in two by sudden emotional outbursts, a non cooperative spirit or an insensitive demand.....

So small in stature, yet can change the world's view with a signature, relationships, soothe, attack, calm, make funnies by the oodles.....
Or just make character faces and scribble abstract doodles.....

It transfers thoughts to paper where text messaging now rules, I've heard No adjectives for descriptions, just symbols for brevity of words.....

They are used to break the silence, express mental clarity or disturbances on matters of gridlock or impasse.....

We can throw daggers when expressing emotional turmoil, mentally abuse and engage to destroy from a hate mode or mischief play.....
Yet, ball the paper in after thought, I really don't feel that way.....it's the vices of drugs, lying and improper conduct controlling the pencils sway.....

The canvas from which the pencil writes is from the minds eye of the holder, whether your dark sides, spiritual sides, artistic sides, relationship sides, you control the flow of your environment through your pencils pressure, hopefully no lead breaks.....
In times when our pencils seem erratic and careless with works and words that harm and stunt our growth.....

We refresh the leads dull edge by re-sharpening, look to the erasers tips.....

To erase the negative turmoil within the author and reduce the Freudian slips.....
The pencil colors are many, bright, joyous and loving I find.....but
Without the lead (heart) no spiritual covering (wood) and the lack of the eraser (forgiveness) doeth we waste a perfectly good pencil and mind.....
