Gorgonize ... Sing

Today’s word is “gorgonize” ... gawr-guh-nahyz ... to affect as a Gorgon; hypnotize; petrify. (Dictionary.com)

Sing
Bad news comes in like a flood,
We’re gorganized by fear,
Her evil gaze and visage,
Make her motives clear.

Of all the barriers we could raise,
To silence frightening foes,
Are songs to God from infant lips ...
They will lift us out of woe.

What a strange prescription,
To cure of us our ills,
But strength grows out of weakness,
And fortifies our will.
