Shut your mouth!
Close… your lips
Stop revealing it all
Saying that and this
Setting yourself up
For a fall.
Letting things in
That should never
Have been in at all
What you let out
Is what, you let in
Cosigning with the pen-stroke
Of the tongue
Telling your business
To everyone.
Everyone who will
Carry it on…
And on…
Effecting the tune
Of your song
Freely speak out
Of your mouth
His praise
To His ears your
Choruses raise
“Death and Life
are in the power
of the tongue”
So speak life
If you want
To live.
