The Statement We Make!

the statement we make, be not written on paper... it is written, in the tired eyes of the workers, underpaid, and struggling. in the hunger of the unemployed, in the rage of the homeless. in the walking of the broken, in the families of dead soldiers. in the anger of the young, with no place to turn. in the seething of the prisons, and the tomb infested colleges. in the smoke filled air, and the rivers full of waste. in the haunted mines, behind the wheel of the big trucks. in the pot standing empty, in the fury of the poets. black and white, male and female, old and young, Christian, Muslim, and atheist... straight and gay, all standing equal, feet set with respect. an army of one becoming many... demanding freedom! the statement we make, with our bodies and souls, with our very lives... written in human blood!
