Words, Minds, Hearts

Hoover dam was recently built, pent up water is gaining potential energy,
Thinking about a matter that distresses, a matter that presses,
Sick to stomach, ill in mind,
Waiting for this to end is hard,
Just wait, then just do,
Are you going to make this a smooth experience,
Or grinding rocks against tender skin, poking things and a stabbing pin,
Will you prepare for that day,
Or will you delay, escape your fate,
Don’t take that bait,
Trust the old man, who says it to be true,
When he was young like you, he didn’t take his cue,
Of course he failed,
Don’t follow my trail, little man,
Little man with powerful ideas,
Strike the emotion chords of your listeners,
We give opportunity,
Your words should be in proper unity,
This self torture is a gift, your words can ring in the minds of many,
Powerful and dangerous is the tongue, like a sword are your words,
Careful where you swing, you aren’t walking in the sun happy spring,
Spoken emotion can change minds, spoken emotion can make enemies,
Pent up wait can hurt, you may have learnt,
Don’t waste your precious words, tell them words, change their minds,
I will change hearts.
