The Tongue

There is more to the tongue Than just taste The tongue can make The tongue can break The tongue can kill The tongue can heal some things are better not spoken Better kept to the heart A sounding silence that burn inside, better than war A tongue is fire Another is fire Not only cobras spit venom Humans too Tame the tongue.
