Dangerous Persons
If a person returns hate
with love,
and returns violence,
with the other cheek,
he is a dangerous person,
and must be stopped,
by any means possible.
If a person fights for a river,
and inspires her tribe
to fight powerful interests,
she is a dangerous person,
and must be stopped,
by any means possible.
If a person can unite
the despised of the earth
with their long time oppressors
under one flag,
he is a dangerous person,
and must be stopped,
by any means possible.
If a person builds
community,
rather than hierarchy,
and will not betray his heart,
nor sell his followers out,
and throws out a lifeline to others,
and in the end,
can not be bought,
he is a dangerous person,
and must be stopped!
