THE FIFTH VOICE


We keep our voices in our pockets

One is a pebble
We can throw it or let it fall to the ground
It is used to tell a lie

Our second voice is a singing bird
It is used to share the truth

Our third voice can be any item
Mine is a playing card
It is used to tell a story, a joke, a poem, a horror tale

Our fourth voice is a speck of dust
It is used only once, before we depart from life

They say a fifth voice exists
Nobody knows what it is or where it is kept
Few people, if any, ever use it
