No More

No more creativity deemed on the exercise of rotten faculty Nor burning intelligence’s penalty Nor repression sold as suppression Nor dissemination of distortion I shall be content at dawn To take my leave Subjugation’s tyranny’s ambition It’s combat? Humanity’s mission Submission’s antithesis is faction Behold as protest is deemed agitation As justice refuses man’s gratitude Take my head be-header For this truth you shall never erase For I am decapitated but not capitulated Speak not of blood ties when you only bleed lies Repression is a passport to humanity’s extinction I’m neither angel nor devil Nor saintly nor evil I am human Striving for what’s right Enemies call me cold I belong in no shelf I put no labels to myself Save to say love is my way When walls brought stuffy indoctrination And repression funded mental assassination Humanity created a blowing wind I climb beyond the human heights When I'm telling the truth Explosive in the extreme I’m called subversive When i’m only creative They call me kinky When i’m only inky I raise an objection And get a rejection When the best brains become exterminated And purity poison to contaminate For if the worst doesn’t come to the best the sun shall rise in the west..

It is only through Education that Man can find Eqaul opportunities. An Open, Educated Mind can be a Powerful Tool used to Teach and Educate a Benighted Mind. All Lives Matter as it is said "Every man was Created Equal" but perhaps most might find that rather questionable when we Live in a World where the Color of your skin determines who you are! Connie,

'... as protest is deemed agitation' as we also assert that Black Lives Matter. Powerful. A lot of lives lost in the West but most have come and gone unnoticed ...

...I climb beyond human heights... Subversive? No. Creative. Plenty said, plenty to say.
