Restraint, the retraining of the tongue,
The smallest but largest loud speaker,
Tamed by the mind and will, its keeper,
Fashioned after the Height, the High Rung:
Let us love all, the new song, now sung;
The message, a change in direction:
Stop, don’t react, pause in reflection.
‘Herod’ demands your fidelity,
Your allegiance: “I am your king, be
Subject to me and my correction!”
Until a Babe in a manger section
Of a livestock stall sent him to his knees.
