Mix Not Things Up

M-ix not things up, 
I-n a fight or dispute; 
L-et all be in order, 
A-llow not the brawl or bruit.

B-oisterous bluster and blare
R-uin the serenity; 
A-im not to utter clamor, 
C-all not attention raucously.
E-ngage not in contest, 
R-age or anger must stop, 
O-n the fifth of September, mix not things up.
