My Incorrigible Tongue

My tongue takes me places I do not want to go.
Gets me into trouble up and down, to and fro.
I bite her sometimes to make her slow.
She wiggles and makes me let her go
Then these words come out a giant show
People are stunned at the immense word flow
As I sit too angry to talk, daring to not let her go.
