In, Out

Out the greed-bound fella brandishing lust, In the saintlier man flashing lamps of truth With wise sayings and rhymes that soothe, To let the past sinful modes return to dust. Out the hasty hand that tosses love and care, In the more careful soul that tolerates all With a heart that does not let its beloveds fall, The caring spirit that treasures all jewels rare.

Very awesome structure here and very gallantly presented expression. "In the saintlier man flashing lamps of truth" That is an awesome line, I must say. I like your work; it gives me much to think about. The ending line is special too. Great work! Always, Laura
