RESIST

The reality of diversity
Is scarcely tolerated when at all
Our young are taught it is perversity
And surely will lead to the nation's fall
By those who would control our days and ways
Therefore my fellow outcasts we must raise
A great roar of defiance in the face
Of this new smiling Nazism here
Which preaches we are outside of God's grace
As they control the populace by fear

The rural poor are manipulated
Tricked through their very faith out of their souls
By the richest who are consecrated
Only to cynical corporate goals

Good people in need are feeding the greed
Of oligarchs who use the wrath of God
To make them afraid of anyone odd
And to always watch out for Democrats
Lest the earth be destroyed by hurricanes
Perfectionistic poets who keep cats
Earthquakes and all the other labor pains
Of earth birthing death for you and for me
Blame us and not the climate change we see
They say does not exist: I say RESIST
