Say No

Say No

Say no 
to bad habits
that keep you in a straitjacket
of lies.
Say no to users and abusers
all they are are consumers
of your blood sweat and tears.
Say no
to manipulators
they are the worst discriminators
and jailers.
Say no
to your guilt
that will ruin your quilt
of grace and favour.
Say no
to being a slave
and being placed in the cage
of society's great expectations.
Say no
and mean no
and root yourself
in the safe place that you know
and grow.
