its a fight human rights
its  blacks and white

A bitter piece

of peace
is worth a bit of peace

Hence you don't see me everywhere

On this site, I find everyday heroes & sheroes

Sir Keir Starmer

Maybe he's not charismatic, but he is pragmatic;
a defender of human rights and all things democratic.

Premium Member Injustice

Almond skin glistens with sheen of sweat.
Welted by whip lashes, marred, scarred.
Steady resolve not to cry.
Slave but in name only.
Eyes plead with heaven.
In agony,
dignity
one ups
pain.

Human Rights Will Be Known As a Myth

They say you exist, 

but its only a matter if time,

until your basic human rights

slowly start to shut down,

and your forced to co-exist.

Until your basic human rights are known as a myth.

TALK TO JESUS LKE A FRIEND

for us  to have human rights
for you he  will fight
he is the father son holy ghost
to him  let make a toast
just let him in

TALK TO JESUS LIKE  A FRIEND

You Will Feel

be mindful
human rights are human ways
that lead down

be careful
the words above always remain
wear no crown

trap the sin
destroy the lie of conceit
look within

don't consume all that you see
you will feel
wrong like fire

Politicians

Politicians are like magicians
They cast spell and the people believe
What they want them to believe!

The politicians talk about development
For their own sake
But the wise people demand human rights
For a better world to make.

Aborted

America, land of the free,
riches and opportunity, 
abound from sea to shining sea,
dreams become reality.

Everyone has the right to be, 
equal voice of society,
everyone that is…except me,
was not given the chance to breathe.

Human Rights

Man's rights. Men's rights. We are life
We are men. Respect the women

But have. Disturbing. Against men
Sexual harassment. Not all true.

Directed crime. Sexual harassment
We are men. A lot of us respect women

Democracy

The ballot box does my persistent fights convey,
to restore what predatory lords did cart away;
because I cast my vote for good governance to enjoy;
that I may integrity in governance employ
by firing evil men who human rights destroy.

Premium Member We Must Stop

We must stop constantly fighting, all of us,
for human rights and equal justice,
in a system that is clearly so blatantly unjust,
and start building a society where equal rights for all humankind,
are an integral part of the system's design.

Premium Member Entitled

These days too many people feel entitled
Not just as individuals
Entitled to basic human rights,
But as some special group
Based on their sex, 
Race, religion, party or class.
And if this offends you
Then you’re probably one of them.
