Pendulum

The course of life sways, on narrow pathways,
Enticements amaze, each side has its craze.
They sing their own praise, to allure their prey
They insist on their ways, all others must pay.
But who’s gone astray, there’s a ditch either way,
The mindless obey, to the chasm convey.

Follow not kings, or fools on their strings,
The propaganda of man, nor the allure of things.
To the left and the right, the pendulum swings
To far either way - brings death on its wings.

Prov 4:25-27
25 Let your eyes look straight ahead,
And your eyelids look right before you.
26 Ponder the path of your feet,
And let all your ways be established.
27 Do not turn to the right or the left;
Remove your foot from evil.
NKJV
