We learn to talk and speak.
Then to sing.
Then to express our views,
And what is in our heart.
We put what we have learned to one,
Our songs of love and protest,

Fists raised in anger.
Protest against inequality,
inequity, all biases,
poverty and hunger.
Wet and cold forecast.
March cancelled.
Pumpkin spice latte please.

Definition, I

In utterance;
I protest
the reason I was born.

In utterance,
I protest your reason too.

We define our own reasons.

Let the control machine erode

To Be Heard

Your loudest,
shrillest
protest
will go unheeded
by the world.
But whisper your longing
to Him
in quiet persistence.
Meditate.
And every soul 
will hear you.

And disputes about this are stupidly airy.
Against small breasts women there is no protest.
But earless, the ladies are scary!

They protest to not be a drama queen
but just can't wait to jump into the scene
Pretending to be a friend
Verbal daggers they extend
Their true colors are now vibrantly seen
