Uncertainty
Everyday in everyway
Words, action, thoughts
Get twisted to fit the play
Honesty, integrity, truth
HONOR
Those words
The meanings are so far
From the lips of today’s
Fellow man
There was a time when
Someone would say
"I give you my word"
They meant it
My mind is encased
With the intentions
Of others
The paths they lead to
Are rarely golden
We must open our hearts
Open our minds
To another time
When men stood
For something
Stood by their words
Said them with conviction
Stuck by their actions
I do not see this in the
Eyes and minds of todays
Man
It breaks my heart
I sure as hell never wanted
To die alone
These days one never knows

If I remember correctly ... the chinese ideogram for "Poetry" is actually two symbols joined, Man & Word, literally "man standing by his word"
