My Word

May my word be pleasant
With the hammer of my pen
To nail my ideas before
My hard world,
To break the cruelty in my world
Before walls of wicked worshipers.
May my word nail my thoughts 
From a pure heart
Before the temple of truth and justice
In a fair ward of honest worshipers.
May my world be humble 
To imbibe my word
For a rhubarb for posterity.
May my word unite with my pen
To hammer it on my paper 
Before tomorrow
For a change of my world.
May my words not wait to waste their worthiness
On the table of an idle world.
