Another Name

Another name is added to the ongoing list authors, actors, visionaries, advocates of change galore now, passed on to the obits of evermore. Too many from my youth and younger ways found the cause and time to mark your days with dreams and wishes, seeking changes on parade. Today, the less well known seem to cater to kings and dictators on a throne with the masses bent and adoration prone. World Wars and police skirmishes sought to imprison those who resist and a generation's senses awaken and with fires burn. History repeats itself until we learn freedom reigns free only if we earned the humanity for which we yearn.
