Think Before you Insult

You best be prepared

if you so dare,

to demean

any man,

dirty with mange

dirty with mange ....

mange a person so dirty their hair is falling out. A person that has no self preservation and is already pestered by an itchy disposition. Thank you stay tuned. in ink, Dabbler

Simple, to the point, and so very true...

Thats the problem; people don't think before they act, or react; I am very purposeful in what I do; thats not to say that I am not guilty of both, but I tend to have a bigger problem with reacting.

Oh Yes...

Sensitive and sometimes the discomfort can make one angry... all the more reason to be kind and understanding. Best Wishes, Wolfy.
