Outlaw Poetry?

outlaw poetry?
poets walkin' outside the law,
spewing bloodstained words,

painting the picture they see,
they feel, they live...
talkin' truth in the age

of propaganda...
holding the raw, beating hearts
of those in need...

with trembling hands,
and jaws set firm....
standing in the face of the roar,

fighting against all odds.
outlaw poetry?
hell no! outlaw ignorance!
