Sometimes Words

Button up your metaphors;

Zipper up your lip.

Shoot from any place you want

Other than the hip.

 

Writing what you really feel

By some will seem a crime,

Especially when posted

Like your others, all in rhyme.

 

Don’t express conflicting views.

Follow the advice

Of staying on the sidelines

And avoid all thinning ice.

 

Sometimes words can make a point

That’s better left unsaid

And on occasion, poems are better

When they aren’t read.
