Let not ill-tempered words destroy your serenity
But let the perfect peace which resides within
Be the most memorable portion of your identity.
Let others see your calm nature-defining affinity,
Your strength to take raw adversity on the chin
Let not ill-tempered words destroy your serenity.
Keep in mind that hatefulness is life’s obscenity
Do not let anger or lashing out become your sin,
Be the most memorable portion of your identity.
Negativisms should only reside in our proximity
When they approach, push them far into oblivion
Let not ill-tempered words destroy your serenity.
Frequently take measure of your prized integrity
Review what motivates acceptable behavior again,
Let not ill-tempered words destroy your serenity
Be the most memorable portion of your identity.

Yeah! Ya got a write to read a verse
But have not a right to rant and cuss, not
Yet if you think you must, I be not judged by a jury fair not you my peer
I prefer you be neutral and discipline
Be polite be respectful don't introduce insight negativisms
Be respectful we are his creation
And also co-creator of our fiction
If you don't like my words I should not be judged by you my peers
And don't read them if you don't like what you see or read
Let It Be but only my words can't be silenced
You can't disrespect me or threaten me with electronic violence
You rant and rave and disbehave
You can't read them or deny them my words I also have a writes
Don't read then mistreat me with insults me you can't bully me
