Ode on the Taming of the Tongue.

To wear one's heart
on one's sleeve
- with shelters part,
see underneath -
is true candor;
shouts authenticity
Here, take my all
and my transparency

Yet a voice scolds
Refrain your folly
Too much that's shown
Hurts more than knit ye
A noisy gong
When words go free
Hurting instead
Camaraderie

Right said ol' James
The tongue is hardest to tame
Reflect with shame
Before your senses are maimed.
