"My child if there is a future you will be / One who will know the truth"


Poem Artwork

May it Make You Free!

My daughter wept when Bush was re-elected
But it turned out just as I had expected
Nonetheless it broke my heart for her to see
There is no justice in an oligarchy

And I used to wonder when all this took place
When democracy turned out to be a lie
Yet they always lied to us right to our face
Kept us numbed with television hypnotized
Stole from us and sent us off to war to die

I was about her age when I realized
That all their fancy words meant nothing at all

We are not important we do not matter
They step on us consume us and get fatter
I have seen them strutting all my fifty years
And now I can see them stumble see them fall
To drown in our sea of disillusioned tears

My child if there is a future you will be
One who will know the truth: may it make you free!

I've heard some say that they 'don't vote', because they don't think that it does any good. I then respond, perhaps...but it's sometimes the only voice we have, so we have to try and make it matter.

Yes, old men make war, young men fight war - Why? It serves no purpose, yet it continues - we may never have peace on this planet until the second coming.

So true my friend, we can take comfort though in knowing perhaps the sixties and our generation may have laid the seed for the eventual eye opening to come. Perhaps you and I may not be there to pick and harvest the protest seeds laid down in our youth but... our grand children may finally have a better world somday. Hope is all we have.

Mon ami, tu exprimes la vérité. Moi aussi j'ai trois enfants. Ils me sont précieux et je voudrais que le monde maintenant soit un monde meilleur. Unfortunately, it's the same old same old world. I love the way you expressed your love and caring in this write, my friend. Thank you, Stevie. Ton ami de la Colombie-Britannique, Canada,

Régis
