Matters To Sleep Over

Gritty matters to sleep over,
Round last decision not hover:
One should not before a rally 
Say things that do not just tally:
Food for thought for mister Sally
Liable to dilly dally...

Begging issues to think over
By even big guys in clover
Though,not about Jerusalem
Nor the street-Tough in Rough Harlem:
Hot matters not unlike sharp thorn,
Parts of the mind that neared them torn,
A sound head in the morn bad ache
And it was for their bloody sake...

Still,matters like thorn Men have torn
And conqueror's face and smile worn!
