I am a man of my word
But what happens
When there is no word
If we just meet.
How do you know my character
When characters have not been said or written.
Can character be formed?
Can my word be bond?
When we have not exchanged pleasantries.
I must strive to be the man you want to deal with
No the man you say did not even act like a man
But as a rascal.

So once words are spoken
They are bond
And I will be a man to them.
Adopt them as my own.
Raise them.
Take care of them.
And make sure that they are good.
I would not want to be a man of bad words.
A man to bad words.
Because then I will be a man condemned by bad words.
