Rebirth

Rebirth Rebirth Mother earth Living like a solider here Standing in the thickness of another storm Holding steady as the winds, turmoil blow me Bobbing and weaving to out run the hits Stumbling I stare into the eyes Of the belly of the beast He has cease in combating with me Because he thinks I’m a weakling Like the rest of his team A solider is what I scream As I take my sword and take This fight to the streets As I run to the left he tries to corner me I run to right and then I strike him in his knee He falls as did Goliath with David I strike him again only this time in his head Realizing that when the brain is dead The body must do the same I bathe in his blood marking my body With this victorious moment 1 for mankind and zero for the beast I realize this victory is not my alone it is for Sean, Abraham and Ms. Thompson son I write their names with the blood Of this so called adversary At last there is peace Because what I killed Were the lies that they implanted in me Through the airwaves, magazines, web cams and cable TV See their visualization of who I’m suppose to be is Unrealistic to an idealist like me Rebirth Rebirth I am Mother Earth
