Just me wondering
Why dramatic diarrhea so destructive
If all I do straps a string on a revulsion ring
Failing on a social scale to be constructive
When the mechanical mouth I open
Letting out seeds of sorrow to thrive
Whether I sow poison or a puny pen
So long as I enable negativity to arrive
In circles seeking encouragement
Devoid of the interference
I sow and plant in the derangement
While I ought to promote a conciliation conference.
Better not to catalyze confusion
Where pacific people gather
Aiming to achieve fraternal fusion
When my actions and distractions sow bounty bother
Which people can do without
If only I contain the brisk behavior
I portray in and out
Of settings seeking Jesus Christ the Saviour
If I don't live the limpid life
Like others the best I deserve
Instead of encouraging strain and strife
As observers by right perceive
Unless my stubbornness wins
Earning my life emptiness
Whether I separate twins
Or reproduce poverty promptness
Which subtracts advantage
Pouring from my eyes tears
As I add deep disadvantage
To my fears in arrears.
