Claws Out, Teeth Bared
An odious trade
Has come to my attention
Her line is direct
Now it seems to me
Withholding one's words is like
Cutting out their tongue.
Barring livelihood
Is like cutting off one's hands
Would you not agree?
It seems only right
To sell back one's property
If coin is proffered
So shame to you both
Certainly the type of thing
That will ruin your sleep
If perchance to dream
Contending with such actions
You might wish for death
Need it be spoken?
Or must a gesture be made?
You're the exception
And perhaps your heir
Will have the sense to make right
Well, one of them will...
