Eat the fresh fruit,
Awaken your senses.
Do not bother with rotten fruit
Growing over the fences.
For it has been corrupted and is not new,
And if you eat it you will surely be corrupted too.
Use discernment and find where the fresh fruit grows,
Try to share it with everyone so that they may know.
But if they reject the good in you for their own foolish pursuit,
Go on about your truthful way
And then they will know you by your fruit.
