Words are everything.....Think
A Foot in Mouth
By Franklin Price
9/24/2017
A foot in mouth is easy
The First Amendment says you may
Chokes you and tastes awful
Always there, for what you say
Do not let the words flow free
Even if the President
Cannot make the words return
To the place, from which, were sent
Remember what old Teddy said,
When you think you should attack
Walk softly, but carry a big stick
Before you speak the smack
When speaking to another
And before your words are sent
Where will your foot be headed?
Yours or the President's
