I'm a philologist

I'm a philologist. I love words. All words. Big and small. Nice and ugly. Right and wrong.

I'm a philologist. I befriend words. I live among them. I talk to them every day.

I'm a philologist. I believe in the power of words. I know they can hurt and heal. I know they can kill.

I'm a philologist. I create words. I put them to sleep. I feed them. I hold their hand. I let them go.

I'm a philologist. When I die words will take care of me.
