Walk Away

It once dawned on me I can't make many see A variety of things, so vitally important Often feeling pressure, to carry truths alone For others not to condone, wrongful actions playing out Lady of justice, empty handed Smiles from thee casting lies False accusations rampid Oh, where are those spies? Truth telling investigators, in positions of authority? To resolve matters swiftly Let's not fight like alligators Save lives, this is needed Walk away from evil now seeded Heidi Sands 12/6/23

The Ten Commandments clearly states "Thou Shalt Not Bear False Witness Against Thy Neighbor". It is also said that the tongue is a two edged sword that swings both ways and if you aren't careful you can cut yourself to death on it. A fine write Heidi. God Bless, JB
