And also,  "Civil Rights Activist" 
For her, luckily 
Though she was hung, it was only in effigy!

Young Nobel Prize laureate, Malala Yousafzai
An activist and warrior, blessed by the most high

Shot in the head; almost killed, yet chose to fight
on for education rights. A cosmic force of light

Botticelli-the pot-bellied artist
For the Medici family was a great activist.
His paintings rose him high.
For his Venus you know why.
He's been claimed such a great artist!

Marching into the wind
Find the issues within

Pop outta your bubble
Get into good trouble

If you feel you are right
Never fear a fair fight

Blessed be this brave land
In truth we will all stand

    Attentively accessing attending ample activities:
    Amazing astonishing alluring ability, assuring achievement. 
    Astounding and accomplished.

Jesse Duarte
Muslim South African
Dead just before age 68
Best known as antiracism fighter
Along with Mandela
That generation is dead, it's over
Self-serving "ANC activists & comrades" remain
To steal and blame (minorities)

II
Jesse was eloquent; loyal leader & 'spokesman'
"Diminutive woman;" Dedicated warrior
Never about herself
She died today
Will be buried today
Now, her religion shows...

we
the defeated being
in the slogan of conqueror

we
the dependent lame child
in the independent constitution

we
the blind activist voter
in the eye witness breast of sun

we
the wounded survivor
on the cured smiling of mass-leader

we
the rumor of political price hike
in the barren womb of onion

we
the loyal kick dog
of republic royal govt.

Anyone who associates with,
this Animal Rights (semi retired) active Activist,
does so very dangerously at your own risk,
because I am on my government's Holocaust List,
so if you associate with me,
to however small or great degree,
you're in danger of being placed on that list also, right along side with me,
and right now my government knows that you are giving this a read.
You Have Been Warned Everybody....

I am planning to come this way again, I swear
Circumstances of my future stay yet unknown,
My status, caste, or the native clothes I’ll wear
I am planning to come this way again, I swear
Maybe next time with a less disarming flair,
A concerted effort to be more laissez faire
Less the activist, perhaps, more like a drone,
I am planning to come this way again, I swear
Circumstances of my future stay yet unknown.

We're a lot like two circus girls
Who can only dream of ruling the world.
We're partners in crime,
But not in the sense that we "do time."

I'll be the harlequin sweetheart,
If you be the green activist who just had to quit.
While we let the good times roll,
The rest of 'em will just have to deal with it.

We're a lot like two famous criminals,
Who only want what's best for themselves.
We're women with such wisdom and strength.
No one can ever put out this light....

Morehouse grad who reached the heights.
Activist for civil rights.
Rhetor, rebel, reverend.
Toiled to segregation end.
In nonviolence believed.
Nobel Prize for Peace received.


Lincoln's words inspired his theme
Uttered in "I have a dream."
Thousands march to Selma led.
Husband who Coretta wed.
Evils tried to remedy.
Rests with brothers Kennedy.


Killed by bigotry and hate.
Inner spirit celebrate.
Name today immortalized.
Greatness that too early died....

Hello Honey Pot.
I know what you are and what you are not.
You aren't really someone who is interested in me,
you're a government mole sent to seduce me,
so you can fish me for any information,
that could help in any investigation,
regarding the activist activity, of yours truly.
Hello Honey Pot.
I know what you are and what you are not.
From a mile away you are very easy for me to spot.
I know all the tricks that government has got, 
so let's roll Honey Pot, give me your best shot....

An extreme smog descends 
on your eyes. A heavy haze envelops 
the landscape. You watch the 
world crumbling around you.
    The death was very beautiful 
    thing, a moment before dying.

Becoming activist had contributed 
towards the end; like 
targeting yourself to be hanged. 
The particulates pollution of 
    depression had seeped, and 
    Milky Way was asking, are you breathing ?

The fish now swims outside 
the body. Death has many colours to celebrate.
