The Shape of Words

I wonder what shape words take if we could see them.  If I open up the shapes feature in my word documents, I can see all sorts of fun things.  Maybe, a word is like a circle, a square, a triangle, an octagon.  An arrow could be something direct and pointed, an arch for something high level. 

If I could see my words, would I use them differently?  If arrows stuck, would I choose something softer?  If circles bounced and never settled anywhere, would I choose something a little more straight sided?

The shape of words, the shape of the meanings – I wonder what they would look like.
