Other Men

Except thou do this, thou shalt be delivered up and become as other men, and have no more gift.

Doctrine & Covenants 3:11

Other men need money and other men partake
of foolish fabrications that lead to rich heartbreak.
Other men are pliant, when rigid discipline
is needed to acquire a bridle for each sin.
When gifted men and women ignore their duty plain
they are as other people -- with more remorse and pain.
The gifts of God are errant, and wander far away
if we be not heedful and let allegiance stray.
