Taste of Control
Oh foolish tongue, you do no wrong
And when I speak
You seem tongue-tied
I have a voice!
I roar
You never heard that before
Lick of wise words
Lick of want
Lick across those tainted lips
Controlling ill taste-buds
Forming as a being
Finally after 10 licks, I had enough
I had become me again
I liked that
