NaPoWriMo Day 18 : The Revolution Is Now
And as
humans we aim to live for now, head forward and never ever backwards.
Find a place that eases hurt and forms a
laboratory of self reliance
Because
people, the revolution is now.
The Revolution is now and it will not wait for you as you write endless poems about
how haters be hating,
How you are going to pull out your tongue and spit on them
How you are going to pull out your tongue and spit on them
Boats you
do not sail or kites you do not fly.
The truth
is an offence and will never be a sin and for that you always have a reason to
cry
Trapped
in a crowd full of people who think not yet utter tom-foolery.
Because Honey, The Revolution is now
The Revolution will
rarely be found In a place the eye does not see.
Or an
echo the ear does not hear
It does
not give a wits end if you are straight or gay because the difference is
narrow.
It does
not tolerate the response of a slave and commands of a slave master because its
the 21 century and shit like that just don't work no more.
It sits
on the side lines and watches you and laughs at you as you metamorphosis into a
being you were never meant to be
Because
you keep playing it in your mind, time after time on how DREAMS are ILLEGAL in
the GHETTO
And how
times are just too damn hard for a "NEGRO"
The
Revolution is Jr Gong Marley who preaches on how
Vexation of spirit is a waste of time
Vexation of spirit is a waste of time
Negative
thinking, a waste of thoughts
Verbal
conflict, a waste of words
Physical
violence, a waste of flesh
The Revolution that was not televised was then,
The Revolution that had no re-runs was there,
The Revolution that will be live is here,
The Revolution is now.
