Potential

It was the last word I found offensive.
She used the right lips,
and I used the wrong context,

But now I use the word like bees use their honey,
and I sling it about like gamblers their money.
I'm disgusted by the word, indeed,
But more with whom I use it on, and how I mean.

I hope potential is merely absurd,
But anything that described Plaxico Burress
Strikes me as a dirty word.
