Words That Matter
Words That Matter attempts to spark conversation around
social issues that are often neglected either for their lack of beauty
or sheer rigidity. These issues are mainly cultural and political. It
further seeks to community hope in its purest form, unfailing and
evermore willingly to rewrite situations brightly however dark
initially. Find thusly sarcasm and humour, folly and wisdom, discord and
harmony, and death and life, all interwoven in revealing just how sound
existence can be (or should be henceforth). Above all, get lost and
find new paths in these verses!
