Live Your Words
A great poet can only be a great man
If words written are words lived on
What matters most is how we live
Not so much what words we give
Go ahead and speak partial truth
Lies fixed to give wolf wolf root
Tell me you were seduced...maybe
That you were raped….I can’t see
Speak of God with clean heart and hands
Or your soul is not worth quick sands
