Tongue In Truth

Treasure the measure of the powerful tongue
Tried or twisted, perhaps true.
Measure the treasure of the powerful truth
Mashed on us by our youth.
Pressure each measure molded in time
Measure the pressure twisted through rhyme, 
Rhyme each measure 
That adds treasure to the truth
Pressure each treasure that the tongue tried true.
Measure the treasure of the truth.
