WALK, TALK

Tick tock says the clock
Time to 
Walk, talk, 
exact
pain or gain
says the clock
Pray you don't fall prey
slack mouth lacks
Wanting no seizing
From season to season
No reason for ridicule
A reason for a silence
Resilience, shame
Tamed fame, no frame
Fascinating



Pain; Playing victim
All time while 
medicine to heal
Ease on you

Gain; Territory expands
Gratitude and love
Yield bountifulness


Walk; In others 
Others walk
So in you
Clothes covers scars
Lay your bed
So you lay on it


Talk; To others
Others talk
So to you
Respect is
To be 
Reciprocated

Prey; Begging for attention
To be valuable
Discriminating
Unaware of self
Uniqueness

Slacking; Unused brain
Speaking 
clones
laziness
Instead 
Observing
Flapping
flutter's you

Lacking; Self confidence
Discipline
Brings denials
Attaining
Acquiring
Restricted

Wanting; Instant gratification
Losing focus
Settling for anything
Granted desires

Seizing; Always consistent
Taking without 
Reciprocating
Updated version
Of snatcher
Swiftly
snitches get stitches

Season; goes around
Comes around giving
What you gave
Relentlessly
Unapologetic-ally

Reason; for living
Decision to make
Consequences
You see clear
Before 
Action
Reaction

Ridicule; Bulling the bull
Ought 
Take by horn
A worthwhile 
Ride
Love don't cracks
Ego does
Pride
Sacrifice
Power

Silence; smooth in action
Fast
soundless in nature
Powerful
Creation 
Liberation
Hesitation

Resilience; Attitude say all
Gratitude
Gateway
Misfortune
Gave
Up

Shame; Indifference
passableness
Gain
Pains
Mindset matters
Time reviews

Tamed; trained 
easier to control
Master no craft
Slave to others
self motivations
Survival mood

Fame; Without integrity
notability
Important
Dishonest
Division
Seekers


Frame; Physically portraying
Building 
Lies
Manipulating
Minds
CLONES
Do as I say
actions matters

Fascinating; Alluring contents
Preys are so lovely
Be aware 
Devourer
Insatiable

Bird eats ants
Ants eats birds
Live or die
Talk to inspire
Walk to heal
Says the clock.
