Honor

Where is honor

 Is it hidden

  In dark corner

Where is honor

 In evil done

 And never righted

Where is honor

 Found in lies

  To cover truth

Where is honor

 To learn of wrong

  And walk away

Where is honor

 In blind eye

  And deaf ear

Where is honor

 To take orders

  What are wrong

Where is honor

 Leave the hurt

  Leave the need

Where is honor

 In knowing right

   And doing not

When honesty

fails out

What is left

To talk about

To Know

What is truly good and correct for decisions and actions is paramount to advancement of the species. Miraculously, we fail and win in cycles and yet survive. Quality of survival is the province of honor, I think. ~allets~
