Don'T Spare the Rod
Don’t spare the rod
Without remorse
Strike hard

For every child good there’s one bad 
Take no chances
Strike hard

Education must come from above
A swinging stroke
Strike hard

Old decorum a twilight 
Duty fading
Strike hard

World now bemused by little Jimmy
Take pleasure
Strike hard...

Sparing
Sparing


Spare the rod, spoil the  child
Sayings are short-hand stories 
Sensible people support and encourage sensitivity
Selflessly give seconds, minutes, hours, days
Sow the seeds of empathy
Save their souls because it's not worth,  
spoiling the ship for a ha'porth of tar.

Spare the rod; spoil the child
So the old proverb read --
and into children, injected dread
but kept them from going hog-wild

Yet many adults just will not hit
until they're really mad --
which always turns out very bad
leaving them emotionally unfit

They lose their cool; they spank too hard
The child begins to cry --
He can't figure out, for the life of it, Why
~ Spanking wasn't long ago banned...

Spare the rod, spoil the child; We should take care of our children now; Just as God does for us... The Lord is... The Lord is like a father; A father to His children; We are His children; Father tender and compassionate you those who fear Him; God, I'm your child an adult now, share not your rod, like a father Reprimand me Father I'm your child
written word by James Edward Lee Sr. 2019© Psalm 103:13...

We're trapped here.
The need to escape 
this fledgling hell hole once called Eden...
is far ahead of the technology to do so.
It's our fault..(the elders)
the government said spare the rod
and we listened to them.. 
so this is what we've raised
a nest of little vampires that cannot fathom
differing points of view.
They turn on us
and won't stop until they drain
the last drop of tranquility from our veins,
and replace it with a globalist cocktail
 
An eternal eclipse of insanity....
