Waiting Is Costly, But One Can Buy

With each tick, a sag
Still in the lag
some in neglect
demise as death
dumb as the sea

Still waters run deep 
diverse tongues and beliefs
black clay however beautiful
 none is voice
...none but passion

Alas!..the power of passion
A mandate to be
once a whisper
later,..a mantra
Feat worth dying

Passion is a jailer
A limit, better than laws
nothing is policy without passion
till you dare enough
little you will know
