It's out of our control
And so we'll sit and watch
As a despicable man
Takes
And takes
And takes
"Stay strong"
"Don't give up"
"There's power in silence."
At least that's what they say
But what will happen on
January 20th,
Inauguration day?
"The fight is not over"
Then tell me what I can do
NOW
Because sitting and staying silent,
Feels anything but strong.
Posted in response to the challenge Inauguration/MLK Day.
It's so interesting that a country founded by people from hundreds of different places now looks down upon immigrants.
I will fight forever
When it seems like all is lost I will fight harder
When I trip and fall I will bleed words and be stronger
When I can no longer write I will speak until they cower
I have never been quite sure if books were truly just words on paper, the ideas of authors who are just ordinary people or if they are magic incarnate.
Because they have never, ever just been words on paper to me.
