Acid splashing on others – v2

The bile of our words
spewed without thinking
the acid of our actions
our self-centered choices
our thoughtlessness,
the harm of our voices
cutting into flesh

Acid splashing on others
the vomit of our hearts
the words that we spit out
harm long remaining
acid burns of actions
thinking only of ourselves
not heeding the words of scripture
