An Honest Man's Poem
My word is my Gold
No ifs nor buts attached
A spade’s a spade
A joker’s a clown in a circus charade
I think carefully before speaking out
Knowing my feelings maybe bias
I censor my mouth
If need be
And Up against a Wall
I’ll tell it like it is...
Never being disrespectful
Sometimes the truth may get you killed
I avoid all kinds of liars
For where there’s smoke
Surely there’s fire
Certainly, Misery loves company they say
So if it's looking for a Victim
I'm getting Out of the WAY
My Voice is my SOUL
What I Choose to say I hold
My Word is my GOLD
