Speak
You say speak but I have nothing to say
Not saying a word I’ll be okay
Not talking is what I feel
Silent is how I deal
Who are you to say utter a word
I’ll speak when I want to be heard
I open my mouth to speak a sound
Only if no ones around
You don’t know me so don’t call me shy
Don fabricate a conclusion because its convenient for you
If this is me then it’s you too
Now speak !

Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.
Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
