Besetting the Tempest

Besetting the tempest Confronting the bad wind which blows Browbeating in its way everything that grows Respires tolerance,peace,security long taken for granted Ousting seeds of faith painstakingly implanted Mislay untoward weeds of abhorrence,bribery and corruption Infest human souls and quarry deception Over the world prevail and hostility nourish Ooze into demure minds and values ditch One contrivance and perhaps the only purchasable If you delve to flourish a life as feasible Benefit wisely,exploit that wind anew Refrain from evil and consciousness issue Shrug off prejudice and your way elbow The wind possesses several strings to his bow.
