The word is our kingdom,
where we tell it like it is,
all words have their meaning,
all words have their bliss.

One may not like what the words mean,
their origins from the dregs of mouth,
but they are words, nonetheless,
I should never be whitewashed out.

Especially when one has a point of view,
that others find abhorrent with what they do,
if free discourse is not allowed,
freedom of speech is disavowed.

History has been censored,
for a very long time.
Revealing the truth,
it is not always sublime.

But the truth must always be told,
even if told by only the very bold.
It must not be redacted from history,
like some evil black stain.

That must be washed,
in the light of new information,
from under the dust of time,
with refreshing clean rain.

All words should be allowed,
to rout out the deceptive wrong,
and no words used to bring out,
any angry foolish throng.
