~ WHEN ~

When,
Will the times arrive
The times of freedoms untangled
Of the subtle war fertilized
With the ring of our forefathers pursuits
Those who died
For freedoms still being engaged
By white faces with colored clothing
And the angry tears of slavery
Worn in the twenty first century
By black faces with nobility born
Into the very DNA
Of set goals
Being falsely proclaimed
As
Victoriously completed.....

When,
All the while
The truth before us
Grows,
Into the force-fed names
Of old world corporations,
And private trusts,
As their murderous deeds
Leak,
Into the sewers
Of self-righteous
Control...

When,
Will the longed for
EQUALITY
Of the many,
Manifest?...

When,
Will my brothers,
Be,
My brothers,
Truly?...

Some words are crying out to be writ .. it just takes someone with insight and guts to place them in the write order and for someone else to find and read them and bingo .......... With the write will and a bit of luck the beginning of change can begin ..

You may have just poemed my first cataylist of the day sir .. N :)

Hello T, I am a little late to the party, so sorry my friend. You highlight the corrupted society we have all allowed to continue for so long. Your piece speaks to me about acceptance, we should be celebrating differences, not creating fear over them. Until we all wake up and realise different is beautiful, we will always struggle to become a solid united humanity. Which is sad because I think if we came together, we would shine brighter as a planet 

Thanks for the thinking and your wonderful words 

Your buddy Gwen :) x
