A mad dash for the podium
Everyone has something important to say
A rush to be heard
No matter what the cost
Spilling guts to those closest and caught
Differences in the way we reach to touch
The human heart and the animal spirit
Bring out the rawest and uncensored
The anger flows to those who dare enter
Be specific
Mention names
Read the letter
Focus on details
For instance, was it raining that day?
Not that one can remember
As to delay the audience from its eventual boredom
Nods to turn to deep sleep
As stories of misconceptions seem all too real
Scream your point of view
Whisper words of wisdom
Just don’t kneel
False idols
Lure in those weak and flippant
Stay consistent
Rock solid in the face of persistence
Recite the lines you committed
To memory
Eventually
Own the facts
Do the math
Figure you are one in so very, very, many
Believe me
One of you is plenty
