Look in the square
up on the soap box
who is that person
who is that man?
And what is it
that he's speaks of
What is it today
that he preaches to the people
He wears not
the robes of the faith
neither those
Of an official of government
But listen
to the wisdom of his words
Listen to the truth
that he preaches from top his box
And there
look do you see
There that young lady
the one with pen and paper
She wears not
the clothing of a educated person
nor is the house she stays in
a mansion of enormous worth
But on the paper
look at her words
read them and feel
the power inlaid in them
And there
The child so innocence
Surely one so young
knows not of the wide wide world
But look into his eyes
and seem the wisdom that lies there
see the secrets that lie
hidden beneath those beautiful young eyes
These are the people
the ones who speak with wisdom
whose words are line with truth
who know the true ways of this world
The people of faith
know only their old ways and rules
and the people in government
only listen to the whispers of money and power
So please
think the next time
you chose to condemn someone
for speaking their mind
For possibly
its not just anarchy the spit
like the poison venom
from a serpents mouth
But truth they speak
in their simple words
so listen and read them well
and learn the truths they are welling to share
For only a fool
Does push aside
The opportunity handed to him
to grow to expand...............
and to learn
