Protesting The Moment

Protesting The Moment

Illuminating the night by the light of a bonfire 
Captivating the insight before one’s mind begins to tire 
Emigrating out of fright as one’s own government becomes a liar 
Abdicating all your rights as they burn your life upon the pyre 

Procession of a line for food that western lives refuse to see
Intercession

Protesting sound of music

Ludwig van Beethoven wrote
"To play a wrong note is insignificant,
To play without passion is inexcusable".
I have been distracted and emotionally affected,
By this particular shop. Therefore,
"To be served by a bunch of unlady like women
Who screamed, and yelled so loud at one another,
At their shop in food court of the shopping centre
Would be like to

Protesting Pachyderms

Fabulous elephant poetry monks
endlessly murmuring verse through their trunks.
Protesting pachyderms trumpeting tales, 
waging their war against ivory sales.
African, Indian, it matters not;
Horton’s rough rampage will make your ears hot!

What it's Like to be Me

Between falling asleep to Taylor swift
And writing everything out in lists
Being me can be interesting

Spending each summer protesting
Marching around Cadillac holding posters
Writing poem after poem looking for closure

Ignoring everyone who dares to try to get ahold of me after school
Tell me in person if you can, it’s an unspoken rule

I sign up to get emails

Protesting, has always been a popular endeavor,
winner is the mouth that runs the longest.
Many join the crowd for anything whatsoever,
the winner is the one whose lungs are strongest.

No one should ever give in to mass cohesion,
when it takes the voices of many to make a point.
Many times protests result in

One Seed

Why at our age are we still protesting?
Why do we feel the need?
Because the fire of hope for a better world still burns inside us…
and because it’s never too late to plant a seed.

If we can plant one seed of understanding
help just one person open their eyes and see
perhaps one day we’ll stop ignoring
and whitewashing

A Remote Control

With a remote control 
Everything may be at your fingertips
But not human rights
Man with wisdom is difficult to control
Bribery and scandal will be questioned
A peaceful demonstration may occur
Protesting
For human rights and justice
The country is neither under one person
Nor controlled by the only remote control 
Called hegemony
But under the whole people's rights 
But under God's protection
But

Oft times we protest making the evening news,
and it isn’t always from our differing in views.

Rather than bend to authority & take a back seat,
we’ll make signs and line both sides of a street.

Following others advice blindly we simply won’t,
and it isn’t always about what we believe, or don’t.

But all about the

Protesters,
are squeaking wheels
in search of grease.
Often getting their way
by disrupting peace.

Always airing their gripes
while carrying a sign. 
It’s a difference of opinion
that hatches their whine.

Fear and intimidation
is the game many play.
Feeling they’re the only ones
who should have any say.

There’s something to be said
for these harnessed voices.
When numbers grow large
it tends to

Out Loud and Clear

Green and growing; educated youth is a warrior, helping country to grow and rise. 
To prevent democracy from becoming a book of rights and crime in disguise. 
To fight out injustice they quickly take charge, without calculating the loss and price. . 
Whether it is protesting or simple candle march. 
Never scared of the valiant

Protesting
Written: by Tom Wright

Protesting has become a dangerous game,
Creating property damage and often killing.
It accomplishes little but occurs just the same,
Working on inequalities seems we’re unwilling.

Those thought oppressed want their payday,
Spouting slogans and shouldering their signs. 
Thinking this might another’s opinion sway,
Desiring to rise above their present confines;

But I don’t see protest as getting this

Through open revolt, dissenting views are expressed,
It’s always about principle, with me, not the reason.
I won’t become a prisoner to any threat or protest,
And I visualize occurrences as another “silly season”.

When many disagree, they soon craft a crude sign,
And it’s never an issue what the majority might say.
Then march in the streets

Protesting Ducks

As I ambled around the village pond

I skimmed a stone through reed and frond,

In distress, ducks took flight

Guilty I, to cause them fright.

Protesting loudly in their quacking

My common sense seemed sadly lacking,

I never thought that stone I chucked

Would cause such grief, to little ducks.

Protesting

Protesting late arrival of spring
This long winter's been lingering
Seriously overstayed its welcome
Not leaving till it's warm and sunny
I’m staying indoors to shout and pout

Protesting Truth Speaks

I see liberal action out marching 
In protest against an elected body 
Hypocrites who hold no value 
hitting a raw nerve highlights 
in their own country of choice

Freedom is being turned upside down 
judged and brought into law 
corruption against the holy script 
criminals dressed as victims attack democracy

Directly as proficient liars are exposed daily
