A word is dead
When it is said,
Some say.
I say it just
Begins to live
That day.
-Emily Dickinson. Final Harvest, (1212).
Thoughts? Is a word ever dead? I think not. Besides that, notice the capitals. Ignore rules and write how it is.

Some words take courage to be set down. Others are flung thoughtlessly as skeet. Maybe that’s what decides their fate.

Releasing a word sometimes means releasing (and losing) the emotion behind. Maybe this was her intention
