Follow the road, be better than before

Muse of truth why me

Can you tell me why
Drips of life fall so hard
You poet you bard
Cry

What purpose your voice on this lad
Excuse what shaved head
waiting candle
Dead

You cryptic excuse for message
Face reality seeking sage
Christ would cry with you
Chosen few

Window burns
Bushel calls
Hide your soul
Write

Poet leave your mark
Wind carries your cry
Candle holds your tear
lie

Better to be wrong than just hear by ears closed and eyes blind

"Better to be wrong than just hear by ears closed and eyes blind" Why is it when someone has strong convictions and will not allow others to change his mind, their ears are closed and their eyes are blind? I have often wondered about that, Walter.
