It's been a minute...

 Funny how time messes with us. It seems like only yesterday I was wandering around Lyon College with my little Kelpie poem placing in their annual contest. And, now, it's suddenly 4 years and a pandemic later.

It is the place where we take the sustenance for our life, and can at once, be used to end our life. And, amazingly, it can be used to provide life for another. The mouth can lead into the body from the outside, taking food, love, life--- and the mouth can lead from the inside of the body out, in the form of spoken words, song, breath.

As, one who seeks to destroy with their mouth may find the same
