Speak If It Be Truth
What kind of light
is denser than air
Speak, if it be true
Must I wander on in blunder
Listening to the ramblings
of the depraved
Say Nay, if I dipose you.
It seems far from me
to show you where
the water lies
Definately not above your eyes.
You must braise your sight
to these poisoned visions
Level your ears to the
deception that rings
Strum the words then, if this is agreeable
Speak again, if this is truth
Speak once more
