Bad Ideas
Many are led astray by bad ideas without giving
a second thought
Some deeply dark evading light, a true enemy
of your spark
They'll dive deep to light a fuse to avoid taking
a loss
They raise red flags beneath the surface, but
ignore them they are false
The game of life is won & lost inside the minds
of its players
We're in a labyrinth made of pieces that have us
puzzled by its layers
The putting on of airs is hot wind, so I'm afraid
the cover is blown
Truth takes the high road like air balloons & interest
on their loans
Hone your skills of perception for you'll need it to
know which way to go
If you know the direction in which you travel, you
can gauge the ebb & flow
Use discernment & discretion as its needed on
your path
Your internal compass is your truth which is all
you really have
Engage the part of you that knows the truth before
falsehood comes to wed
Bad ideas are sticky & have a way of getting stuck
inside your head
