Hold it in, like medicine...
Write anything inspired by the prompt. Love the line and the rhyme and the matching syllables. I can't figure out where to go with it, so put me out of my misery and create some badassery.

Hold It In
Hold it in, like medicine,
Do not spit out that small pit,
Swallow words, sheath your sharp swords,
Do allow yourself to bow
To their whims; your wisdom dims
When compared to their hatred.
Hold it in, like medicine,
Vomit not that stomach knot
Shut your mouth and nicely laugh
At their shit, their brainless grit
Their notions, have no lotions
Dim the slap made to your sap.
Hold it in, like medicine,
God forbid farewell you bid,
‘Hail Mary’ so you marry,
Do as told, till you get old,
Death’s solace sees your prowess
Your soul, mind, how you are kind.
But now,
Hold it in, like medicine.
