Liberty Of Expression Poem by Hebert Logerie

Tell it like it is
You solely know
Your personal realities
Only you can show
Your personal qualities
Think and say it as you see fit
Be frank, sincere and fit
Have no fear, you control your fate
Express yourself, nobody knows
What is bothering your nose
What's driving you berserk
What can turn you into a jerk
Tell it like it is
Be fair, just and wise
Don't use tricks and lies
Nobody can truly alter the realities
Of life. Love everyone
Respect everyone, and bow to no one
Nobody has truly more
Everybody has one body, one brain, one heart, one skin
One liver, one stomach, one large and small intestine
Given by the Almighty
Close the pores, close the door
To think and rethink your position

Sometimes the wrong action
Is taken against the wrong individual
Always stay in control
And be careful in everything you do
Be strong, fair, resilient, and sue
As a last resort, to settle the score
When facing the scrooge, the conquistador
The criminal element. Say it with confidence
Because it is just to do so
You can solely show
The veracity of the evidence
Express yourself like your life was in danger
Fight like your sister's life was in danger
Without your defense, the world will go under
Love like a lover, and fight like a soldier
Think and say it as you see fit
Have no fear, you control your fate.
