MY TOUNGE IS A SWORD. IT IS A DOUBLE-EDGED BLADE. USED FOR LIFE OR DEATH, DEPENDING ON THE DIRECTION ITS SWAYED. HOIST IT THE RIGHT WAY, SOUL. HARNESS THE WRONG WAY, FOOL.

Life, the Pyrrhic Victory

Prosperity is the wine of fools.
Drunk with the world and its
fortune and fame
You get the pleasures for a season
But the eternal season remains.
Reaching to attain
a prize that can never be gained.
A few good memories
of a life that will one day be undone.
Sand castles when the storms come
are only dust and earth.
You could gain this whole world
and lose your soul;
Tell me, what is it worth?

    This is truly a gift from God.
