Writing to fill a paper

Proverbs 3:3-4 Let not mercy and truth forsake you;
Bind them around your neck,
Write them on the tablet of your heart,
4 And so find favor and high esteem
In the sight of God and man.
  Writing

 

To write simply to write ... to fill paper with just words

is talking without saying much ... like rattling in the wind.

Should one then quit writing ... to stop the rattling sound

or should one just continue ... until some thoughts begin?

 

What is it when one tampers ... with issues of the mind

and what if it involves them ...  who depend on you?

Is it like just stealing ... or the robbing of the blind

who in trust are following ... to do what you will them too.

 

Is that where guile begins ... and a world of tampering?

Is it there where it takes root ... to stay as a welcome guest?

As soon it will control you ... and leads you where it wills

never to be opposed again ... as a winner without a quest.
