SoP 30: The Sharp Tongue can Strike its Owner

Words
are curious things
Interesting projectiles that can be
-----gently lobbed
-----forcefully thrown

The tongue
launches these words
hopefully acting with the mind to
-----soften them
-----sharpen slightly

But sometimes
the tongue just sharpens
without a thought from the mind
-----badly received
-----self-wounding

Regret
is an awful thing
it can scar the self, but
-----one learns
-----from mistakes
