The words we speak should all be good and sweet —
an adage from of old, so often said —
in case, in time, their substance we must eat
and not then find them toxic, and be dead!

And now the quantum physicist says, too,
that research shows effects which are quite clear:
how atoms and electrons rendezvous
according to the stimuli they hear.

So let us speak according to a plan
for peace, and love, and right, and so align
our universe for benefit of man
and beast, in harmony with God’s design.

Then mind the words you speak, and be discreet,
for what you say the molecules repeat!
