Duress

To teach and to ell the truth,
To study and to say my prayers,
To write and to touch your muse,
To sing and to praise your name,
For your love is like the milk and the meat;
But you are under duress! !

Show the difference between the clean and the unclean things around you,
For the law breakers are always around you!
And like the signs of the dying sun under duress,
But today's educated world still worships Satan through various customs.
