Yorktown Disciple
Quatrain of Tempered Soul

I did


I tempered my soul when I
was twelve years of
age, to keep
my spirit in
check,.


I knew if I left my ornery
self do what I want,
I'd constantly be
in a mindless
wreck.


I was born with too much
push and shove to
walk a civil line, I
would always
stagger,


With a chastened soul, I
behave myself politely,
only my thoughts
are allowed to
swagger.
