Within the hornet’s nest

Within the hornet’s nest

A Poem by andrew mitchell

Thoughts that sting
should not be spoken
but remain in exile
on sacred grounds.

Really? Well... don't know if I can agree with that one...

I'm a firm free-speech and rights and freedom believer.

Of course that... when it comes to plain threats or ruining other people's lives...

Yeah... I might even agree with you on that one!

This reminds me of one of my father's favourite sayings," A still tongue makes a wise head ". Thank you for this brief but poignant poem.

We both share the same experience
How true that the sting is best hidden because when that hornet’s nest is opened, all hell breaks loose. Nice piece of brevity Andrew.
