Ode To A Golden Mean

“I’ll kill him.”, he said hand on his hips 
Four-score and six a sobering sight
It pursed the brow and quaked the lips -
I summoned my best to be terse but polite.

“The cheek is soft both left and the right" 
“Between his eyes, I hate this man.”
“The still of the night serves to softens harsh light” 
“Not a moment to soon, as fast as I  can”

It ain’t safe no more in the Palace of the Pope
“Love and patients give forth promised grace.”
“Faith and charity are still the best hope.”
“Best I wait to continue the chase.” 

Oh! how golden this measure so proud 
When the mean forsakes to be taken aloud

                                                                        Châz
