The Pen Will Flow
I wonder what I am
Today and tomorrow.
Will I be a hero
Or will I fall to zero?
Will today I sing
In heaven, or tomorrow
Will I be thrown
Into a fiery oven?
I don’t give up
On the Bible.
I do works and my
Faith is not dead.
Will I find one day
That I have bled and
The ink turns red?
I’ll jot down what fled?
Yes and no, I’ll write
The good and avoid
The bad, but save the
Ugly so I don’t go mad.
Now the pen will flow
Where I don’t go
Until all is written
Down and all I know.
