Bridle the Tongue
Bridle The Tongue
Written: by Miracle Man

A protest of any kind alters thinking,
not always supporting a protesters cause.
With signs, in number, they vehemently shout,
and until meeting with force this trend won’t pause.
Because a loud squeaking wheel always gets grease,
and this is causing present day to look bleak.
The tongue, a small member, defiles our body,*
because it is from the heart the mouth does speak.
*James 3:6
6 And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell.
