Can one stay serpent's toxic poison
Arisen from words in mind's air
Words said in haste or in hate
Seeping through mind's darkest lairs
Entombed in not ever forgotten
Slashing heart or brain crushing
Life as one left out in the rain
Soggy, wet, miserable, cur soul
How much more in life of suffering
Like millstone hung, dropping deep
Drowning thoughts, ******* all air
Only waiting upon a forgiving word

Psalms 52:4. "You love any words that destroy, you treacherous tongue!"
James 3:8 (NKJV) But no man can tame the tongue. It is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.
