Ungraceful
and clamoring over
one another
they trip from the tongue
clumsy and
honest

With no forethought
beyond the truth
the blessed,
unfettered
truth

Pristine
and refreshing
like fresh water
on cracked
and thirsty
lips

Deperate ears
perked and offended
sift through the results
seeking only what
ruffles the savage breast
no more
no less

Sacrifice
to save face
openning enough
to ensure it closes
tight

Silencing the echoes
that invade the lull
stir the dust
to cover the tracks

Unabashedly informing
keep
your water
keep
your words

This is no place
for liberation


If I don't say it...who will?

I like this too, very much.  What I got was a struggle with
self control so as not to allow a certain soomeone to bring you down to their level.

good poem, good venting.

Amazing how that little wagging item can cause so much trouble.

You're right on with this one and I hope that gum doesn't burst and put your eyes out so you aren't able to write some more of this social mediating.....Well done!
