Opinions

Throw the sand at the eyes 
make the pebbles hit the face 
if stones don't make them realise 
boulders make them run at pace 

Twigs used well can pierce the skin 
branches swung well cause a smack 
trunks that fall are good for crushing 
send the message "don't come back" 

Sticks and stones may break bones 
but words may cause a bee chin' moan 
freedom and offence are sown 
expectant only of your own 

I don't set out to insult or mock 
I do it because you're a c***
