My Word

May my word be pleasant With the hammer of my pen To nail my ideas before My hard world, To break the cruelty in my world Before walls of wicked worshipers. May my word nail my thoughts From a pure heart Before the temple of truth and justice In a fair ward of honest worshipers. May my world be humble To imbibe my word For a rhubarb for posterity. May my word unite with my pen To hammer it on my paper Before tomorrow For a change of my world. May my words not wait to waste their worthiness On the table of an idle world.
