~ “Above everything else, guard your heart; for it is the source of life's consequences.”~
Proverbs 4:23)
these days, good advice overnight trebles in value,
no one I’m sure has consulted Proverbs today,
not me, not you, not anybody, but these words
came to we, the confined, lonely hearted prisoners, we who
are needy to reflect, we raggedy people in solitary.
tonight, some of us will recall an exodus to free,
an escape from slavery, how we put at risk
our bodies in a sea, a desert, more crazy, in an
invisible deity, when that was a heretical concept, we who
are needy to reflect, we raggedy people in solitary.
Above everything else, guard your heart;
for it is the source of life's consequences,
the organ above/beyond mouths, eyes, even lungs,
it’s what purposed we fragile, petal edging humans who
are needy to reflect, we raggedy people in solitary.
