This is a call to arms
Pick up our friends and family
The ones we led to harm
Shattered visions, dreams destroyed
Our white fathers, sadistically smiling
As they mutilate familial bonds
Under the false pretence of peace
So incredibly beguiling
In the business of stealing souls
An insatiable appetite
But our hearts are bankrupt
We must liquidate our assets
And return that which we stole
Countless people fighting
For their specific causes
We must use our ill gotten power
Acting as a semicolon
To unite their separate clauses
I might add to this, but I feel pretty good about it right now. It initially started out as a blog post entitled "Why I hate feminism, gay rights, and black rights". I just wanted to talk about how I think they need to unite for human equality as they would have strength in numbers, more people to relate and empathize, and I forget my third point. I am in the middle of reading "Three Day Road", and I realized, through the injustice the Native's faced, that being an extremely privileged white male, we are the ones with all of the power, at least for now. I can't lie and say that I am incredibly knowledgeable about all of the wrong doings of white people. I intend on doing more reading about it, so as to educate myself, and in turn help spread a message of love. My new found interest in writing, specifically poetry, is helping me begin to organize my thoughts and find an outlet.
