Breaking Lies

Just Off The Top Of My Head

Fists erupted through the brick like a volcano
Knuckles open, new stitches to sew
Angry grunts break mortar and stone
These walls fall as if they’d been thrown
The pain is a high, no denying
No more captivity, no more lying
Break out like an animal, too wild
Show them why you are called a Problem child
Words boom like dynamite
Burrowing like a burning termite
No more forgiving, forgetting, or following
Go and show the weak
It’s ok to be a “weirdo” or a “freak”
Just be you and never fail
Be as sturdy as steel in hail
Ring your mind’s bell
Break loose like you’re middle name’s Hell

(2013)
