Promise Me This
January 10, 2023
PROMISE ME THIS
Promise me this
That you will not
succumb to the
propaganda Machine
That you will not let
rhetoric rule your life
Promise me this
That you will look at every situation
objectively and not let emotions
cloud your judgments
This I ask of you
This I ask of myself
Lies are destructive
falsehoods tantamount
to treason
Promise me this
That you will
never be swayed
by someone else’s
emotional outbursts
they are like wildfire
and bullets
Promise me this
That you will be
kind to yourself
and others
