Listen,
Don’t shout.
Speak softly,
And they will hear.
A sheep in a tiger pen
Will get bitten,
Don’t you know that?
Climb the hill before
Screaming your word.
And don’t cuss, son.
Save it for the keyboard
Where you are safe.
Nobody could blame you.
Paint a pretty picture
For all to see.
Opinion lies between the strokes.
It
is free after all.
Brave little soldier
Bringing a pail of water to cool a volcano.
Everyone’s little hero.
What were you trying to achieve,
Screaming your word?
Climb the hill first.
And then they will hear,
When you speak softly.
Don’t shout,
Listen.
