A Prat To Witness

I live by the mouth
quick wit is my bullet
the trigger no doubt
my impulses pull it

You could say on the hole
it does me no good 
but I haven’t control
would stop if I could

The day my mouth runs witless
I’ll stand a prat to witness




*hole - play on words, on the whole/ on my mouth hole
