Rotting

I am not embarrassed anymore

to speak words that need to fall,

even on ears that will not hear;

I am no ashamed to call out

loud some truth that pulls apart

the rotting core of this decay.

 

Are you hearing?

Are you seeing

what I see?

Can you smell 

the rotting flesh

of hypocrisy?

Hear my words!

 

Know the truth

that scares you

to your bones.

See that this world 

is not all it appears 

or seems to be.
