A time to resist
The trash on the news
reflects the trash in the White House,
not what's beating in our chest
or blaring in our minds.
Nefarious types and their dividing power
keep us from one another,
they're getting richer by the hour.
Got us transfixed on hot button issues
while they line their pockets and strip the constitution.
All this mindless consumerism and social media
has given us amnesia,
we're viewing our neighbors as enemies
and refugees as villains.
Our human kindness gets smaller
in the face of capitalistic greed and materialism.
Some of us are splitting wood to heat our homes
while these millionaires in congress have maids that they're hiring.
I'm not envious though, that shit isn't me.
My plans for the future are growing food,
making art and social responsibility.
Don't get caught up in the illusion
while the puppet masters are drilling for oil.
Turn off your television, organize with your neighbors,
grab your creative weapons, dig in the soil.
We've got problems ahead, stuff like climate change,
backed by science.
So resist brothers and sisters with love,
cut out the ignorance,
arm yourselves with knowledge,
save the planet,
stop the violence.
-Marianne Burrows
