WAIT ON MIND

Peter John Sutton

Restrain false fervor
before words flicker
from unmeditating lips,
before considered paintbrush slips
from guidance into unconsidered splash.
Let tongue and hand be tempered
by intention to express
the full control of Mind.
So shall we not be brash.

Peter John Sutton
