Revolution Poem # 1

Excerpt from the my first chapbook "Quiet! The voices inside my head are trying to sleep!"

Always, read the fine print!

You cannot neglect the fine print on suicide cause it takes little or no effort to die

Now if you want to live that's different.

If you want to live, dance on razorblades really live life on the edge
I mean really take risks then just try to live not just stay alive.

It takes effort to pay that rent on time effort! To work that job you despise!

Effort! To love the same someone everyday all the time when there's always a pretty face, a silky voice, a nice behind It's WORK!.. to be faithful when your natures on the rise.

Try doing the WORK!

Commit to someone have faith and believe even when it don’t make sense

It's so hard to live, it's hard just to survivewhen men who look like me, stare back with hate in they eyes.

It takes WORK to live WORK to love to walk the streets with a smile on my lips let love shine through my eyes speak to a stranger, nowadays that's dangerous!

I can fake a revolution!

I can get guns and shout slogans in the street!

But real agents of change choose life so I battle daily! I choose my weapons carefully. I stay armed with notebook and pen, song in my heart and camera lens. Fight daily, pray daily!

Love as much as possible showing it despite the obstacles.
Loving life is revolution!

Revolution is loving Life!
