NASTY

 

NASTY

 

You call me nasty cause I`m bold

But it`s just a word I`m told

Is it ?

Could it be a name ?

 

Some woman,  old what`s her name

That gossips here and there

Or is it a verb ?

Like something did or done

 

Is it something I did ?

I think if I did I hid

Come on now it`s just

A word

----Eagle Cruagh

The Jews say, always a wise saying: "Swearing does not hurt" Haunting does ...
Nasty is just a word, right? you are right. It can be overused in many ways ... for every mind it's another meaning ... For every mind another feeling.
For many a point of viewing.... Good write, but related to the writer....

Nasty or N.A.S.T.Y. (the National Association of Spies, Traitors and Yahoos)?

[Lydia Blackwell]

So many words are used in improperly by Americans. We take words out of context or distort their meanings. Ironically, the word ignorant, is most often misused, when the person means, rude. Hence, the user becomes ignorant!
I think words CAN hurt, and sometimes they are hard to forget.
