Tom Wright Poet Lyric

Condemnation Or Justification

Condemnation or Justification
Written: by Tom Wright
11-1-2016

Withdrawing harsh words might be our choice,
They leave us to passionately apologize at will.
To retract is no option once uttered by voice,
Because the impact persists in that heart still;

Frequently abrasive words are voiced in haste,
Leaving collateral damage on those unknown;
Like grenades they leave the landscape waste,
And we only remember the last one thrown.
