An Unruly Member
"An Unruly Member"
Written: by Tom Wright
1998
From man's tongue
Flows both Honey of the Hive
And the sting of Bee's;
Many go about
Telling half truth's, tickling ears,
And casting stones;
The tongue,
Is not the problem per se,
But a symptom of the problem;
Using self diagnosis,
Many make attempts to Bandage
(Or control) the tongue,
Oblivious to the fact
That the real need
Is a transplant; (Change of heart)
