Speaking in tongues

I wish I could do it
It then would just
Flow out of me
A passionate torrent
Of uncensored self
A tsunami of truth
Anger fear love longing
Devastating
Undeniable
Unbridled
Tactless
Carefree
Shedding
The wise or the virtuous

There is no time
For the little girl act
For fairy tales
For Pollyanna
Life is too short

This calls for the mad angel of verse
Walking barefoot through the fire
Unmasking the world
In a frenzied dance of
Brazen rhyme and barefaced rhythm
