Mind your words!
One can't undo things with it,
A "Sorry" sometimes, is a bad fit.
Bullet-like words load your tongue of guns, Choose them right, for you only fire once.

Six is Nine when it's upside down,
A vantage point shows a clearer ground.
So, speak your mind with a harmless grit,
And that speech would sound like a super hit!

What rolls down but doesn't roll back?
Tears from innocent eyes on track.
Painful bruises dress many hearts,
When the game of words is played like darts.

Mellow down, like an angel's tone,
That rubbery muscle might break many bones. Turn all Reds into peaceful Whites,
You'll never feel Blue when your words are right!
