CHASTISEMENT

it is so easy the others to Blame

for your own foolishness, for false Steps.

how often have you, for your own Shame

misread, misapprehended, sorry Laps

taken up in a life so Whorish?

bending to others, all too Fearful

of your own quest to Accomplish,

forgetting your best and so Gleeful

rebelling against those you Obeyed?

now take up the blame and be Steadier.

because you don't have to be Here,

you bend and obey for finding it Easier

your life, all the while letting be Swayed

by those that you find closest and Near.
