words are like breath. without them, i do not live. the interplay of their tumbling syllables is liek sunlight on water, a summer day swimming where the trout nibble your toes. words are how non-painters convey color. but try to describ e"opposite" without using "opposite" words control us, as much as we make them dance.

This Answer was too beautifully stated and purely, satisfyingly poetic to *not* merit every grace I could bestow, including voting for it. Wow. It's like a song without the need for music! (And don't tell me that's what a good poem is, I know that already, thank you!) ;)

Yeah, it's just too bad that they misspelled the word 'like', though.

and by "they" you mean she or he?
presuming, of course, that banananna is a singular person.

I was trying not to say something like, "the person who posted the answer which your comment referred to"
