Call to Action

This is a call to action
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.
