What Branko knew about words
"I was killed by a word too strong."
Branko Miljković
That words can wound you,
trap you and betray you,
weigh you down,
like a rock around your neck.
trip you,
burn your tongue,
misplace you.
mislead you,
make you lose yourself,
hit you like a rock,
slap you in the face,
words poorly chosen,
too strong, too many,
shouted, or whispered like a curse.
