'' You'll Be Overcome By Charm '' Poem by Bri Mar

'' You'll Be Overcome By Charm ''



Sticks and stones,
Can break bones,
But when the critic barks,
They can portray some nasty tones,
Within their curt remarks.

The gift of speech,
We try to teach,
Can bring us all such fun,
But common decency it can breach,
When it portrays a loaded gun.

I hate you,
You cause ado,
Although we've never met,
What's the lie and what is true,
I wouldn't take a bet.

Control that lip,
Before you slip,
Some people are beyond belief,
You may well shoot from the hip,
But you're causing others grief.

It's not a crime,
To berate a rhyme,
But why even bother to read,
You know that author at some time,
Will view then inside bleed.

Not to say,
What you want to portray,
Will not cause fear or alarm,
Let your badness drift away,
