Cure the Mind and Tongue:
Devil be off my tongue
Or I shall cut it out,
For I would rather bleed a mute,
Than allow falsehood to spout!
I’ll banish you to the silent grave,
And in my mind to silence you,
I will pull the trigger and be brave.
Muffled beneath confining sod
There you shall be forgot.
(It existed as an idea so I wrote it. It was then manifest in the form of a file, so I posted it. It is rather base and premature, but is it worth pursuit?)

i would pursue it. even if only to see what else you can come with. it's seems an interesting thought and i like the straightforwardness (oh that one actually was a word!) of it. it's sharp and to the point, it captures attention.
btw, Chelsea was right. i wish i could read all of this tonight, but the Odyssey is calling out to me (maybe it's the muses...hmmm). thanks for hanging today. :)
