SPEAK

 

Please open your pretty fucking mouth.
Let something deep and real drip out.
Utter a thing more than the usual trifle.
Though the words too need not be a rifle.
Simply, to start, try a temperate truth.
There’s no need to raze the goddamn roof.
Let me just glimpse what goes on inside.
Reveal some glimmer of what the smiles hide.
No one is only all pure love and light.
Your heart too is spotted with blight.
