Anything Is Better

I am the constant force of good
Evil is my enemy
My conscious realm is the verbal gymnastics of life
The quintessential avenue of discussion is my gun
I speak the truth
Some say I am a prophet
I say I am a person who is not afraid
Those who try to silence me want me dead
They try to physically kill me everyday
I fight back with words of force and feeling 
Speaking out as only I can say  
My life is under constant threat
I treat fear as my friend 
I live day to day
The powers will end my existence as surly as I breathe 
I am one with God 
All animals are my brother 
Long live free speech
