Perhaps Guilty!!


Perhaps Guilty!

Refugees, displaced persons,
ethnic cleansed, homeless,
Those,    who in this world
experience death before dying,
to stir our apathetic hearts
you invade the comfort of our homes
through hi-tec images, internet-info. 
Like satellite pictures
beamed from another galaxy
we gaze in disbelief.
Perhaps guilt makes us feel relieved
when the picture changes
to the latest soap
or some healthy life-style show.
How can we comprehend such pain,
such raw anguish
from the comfort of an armchair?

The Peasants Are Picking Up Their Pitchforks.

     From East to West, from North to South, people are standing up to authority and injustice. Pick your country and there will be trouble on the streets, the system is creaking, more and more power is needed to keep the "peasants" in line. the smoke is clearing, the illusion is fading, and the system is being seen for what it is, a punitive repressive system, held in place by brute force, to protect the parasitic pampered few. The force that holds it together is only temporary, as that same force will be its downfall. The harder you push down on a spring the higher it bounces up, so it is with violence against the people.
 
Here are just a few of the recent actions against that state brutality, look around and you will find many more:
