Catch a curse upon the lips <br />And pucker it in to a kiss, <br />Think before you let it go <br />Before it does the damage; Oh! – <br /> <br />If the words you plan to speak - <br />Do so intend to red’ the cheek, <br />Or show you strong, against those meek, <br />Then do not let that falseness reek. <br /> <br />For weak are those who do not stem, <br />And always blunt, be sword to pen, <br />So write them down; go bury them! <br />And save the grace of fellow men.<br /><br />john thomas<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/curses-2/
