Speech impediment
Speak,
So you can hear them sputter
There lack of all intelligence reaks
Think,
Because it's so much easier
There slack in all vocabulary peaks
Read,
Because books don't lie
And they let you keep it all inside
Write,
Because it's the only truth that comes out of you
Keep it bottled like nobody ever knew
Breath,
Life into this pen
Seethe,
Your anger onto paper
Because you truly believe in this approach
Because on paper maybe others will note
That speaking is a tool to destroy
Respect,
Because maybe they can still see reason
Live,
Because maybe there are reasons
Breath in,
Converse,
Confused,
It's why society stutters
No need,
To speak.
