Speak

-Speak-
by
Keaton Foster



Speak
These words
And you will learn
More than you could
More than you should
You will see
Into the core of being
Into the reality of everything
Forever changing your life
In many profound ways
Allowing you to know something others don’t
What they refuse will become your truth
Your edge over all that makes them ordinary
Over all that makes them mundane
You will become acutely aware
Infinite within what in your past
Has caused you considerable fear
Fear is what you will show least of all
Knowledge will rage in your head
Understanding will become like a brick
That you can use to beat pseudo idiots with
Bashing their brains in
Leaving them knowing that they are alive
Forcing them to comprehend
Forcing them to understand
And if they don’t then the end
Via a much needed bludgeoning
Should undoubtedly be theirs
You will not be prosecuted
You will be found guilty of nothing
Incapable of being judged
Because intellectual evolution is not a crime
Within the confines of any space and time
Most of all yours and mine
Speak
These words
If you must, make them your own
Have no propriety concerns
Fitting in for conformities sake
Will get all of us nowhere quick
I do not write for fortune of fame
Notoriety means nothing to me
How could it ever
I write for release, the feeling of freedom
I write because I must, there is no choice
I will change the world, if not mine
Then certainly, hopefully yours
Speak and you will be heard
By those beyond me and my own ability
Speak and they will understand
Relay what was told to you
Show them all my neoclassical friend
Because such a vicious cycle
That once began must never end…
