Speech is free, consequences not.
Results vary in time and place.
Humans communicate a lot,
Part of charm of the human race.
Shooting of one's mouth may cause hurt,
Not the same as shooting a gun.
Apology might mend a blurt.
Bullet holes cannot be undone.
The Golden Rule with speech is good.
Speak unto others in a way
That others speaking to you would,
And you would think such speech okay.
Is what's said true, needed or kind?
Before it's said, keep that in mind.
