Poem read and written to heighten Awareness of GMO foods
Don't just eat that do something
How long have we warned you?
How long have you ignored?
How long will we be side tracked?
We know who the culprits are,
There's no shame in their game.
We can call out their names,
They are not hiding; the disregard is blatant.
They can stop the one, they can stop the two.
The masses must rise, and organize
Before we are too weak to rebel.
This is not a quick sale.
We have been investing in this for a long time.
Keep thinking there's someone watching the barn.
F.D.A., C.I.a., FBI - H.A.A.R.P. “nope”:
They are not on your side
They are frenemies.
"enemies with a smile"
“you think they care about round-up”.?
Or genetically engineered foods, do you?
Think they care about serving you" bovine cows",
Or chickens grown in six weeks with no beaks,
Do you? ...
Do you think they care about?
Confiscating your seeds?
Do you think the food you eat has nutrition?
And the confiscated seeds- were confiscated
With good intentions, do you?
How long before or children inherit more diseases
To please the greed of the pharmacies?
Do you want to watch them suffer?
While they heave, and can hardly breath.?
You can only for so long make this be about color,
Class, or race, as you turn away your face.
How long have we warned you?
The corn the tomatoes the oranges
The trees the grass the water
The fruit the veggies the air...?
Do you care - do you?
Stand up now
Write, call, speak, fight...
By any means necessary and...
"don't just eat that"....
” do something”!!!
