.
an undisciplined mind?

tame that monster -or-
surely one day
it will run you off a cliff

a disorganized mind?

rearrange your ways -or-
surely one day
be lost in a hellish quagmire
of your own making

an unscrupulous mind?

scrupulize it -or-
surely one day
it will come around and bite you
right where it hurts the most

an intelligent, artful mind?

mollify it with humility -or-
surley one day....
