Best Activism Poems

S ober your mind and clear the mist of ignorance
I mmediate reaction is required to gang up against perpetrators 
X enial approach is needed to shield the victims from prejudice
T o help everyone understand their struggles, education is vital 
E very day I hear voices...

Before we expect them to speak up.
Before we judge them.
Before we make fun of their sufferings.
Before we label them by names;
Let us take a good look at our mindsets.
When they keep silent we call them cowards,
They report the abuse, we laugh at them.
Her name is...

One of the great things about being an artist is that even if I can’t change the world I still have an unfettered opportunity to express my opinions. To keep from exploding, I made these pieces instead—Alice Deasley

Mine fervent aspiring political activism...

Gunning gusto, (while rosy axles grind)
for Bernie Sanders dagnabbit
nipped in figurative bud triggered zilch
prospects to germinate, 

cultivate, and amalgamate
late blooming spore port as 
schlocky, reedy, quirky, political neophyte,
whose aura, charisma, dogma
enigma, persona... absent gregarious masculinity.

I can say a civil hello
But anymore lie for popularity
And read poems like grade school work
Ignoring the condition of the world
And the disconnect of self
Marginalizing the deeper worth in us
The gift we are given by sacred trust
To make the blind speak
And the dumb listen
The dying...

In the heart's embrace, love finds its home,
Where souls entwine, no longer alone.
A promise made, a bond so true,
In marriage vows, we start anew.
Through trials faced and battles fought,
Activism's flame, a fire sought.
Voices raised, for justice's call,
In unity, we stand tall.
Love's gentle touch, activism's might,
Together...

In shopping centres, bright and wide,
Where our dreams can fly and glide,
We wrap our hearts in things we've bought,
Forgetting stars, by city lights caught.

Yet, whispers of change might find their way,
As people stand up, by the ocean's spray.
Our Earth, they say, is worth more than...

Elevated insight
So clear
Bright surety

Releasing the grasp of kaleidoscopic obscurity
Accepting any false judgments

Microscopic impurities

They are just contemporary deceits
Don't let them become your present day defeats
Don't feel compelled to let your life be kept discreet

You have the power to disagree 
combating the issues of the common least

Questioning...

By this GoodYear,
invest in this Good 20/20 eco-political Year,

Buy for yourself,
cash in advance powerful traction!

Buy for your kids
with balding tires
and scratchy heads!

Buy for your friends
for future skid-free insurance
protecting from washed out futures!

Store them in your garage
your kids' sheds
your neighbor's extra bed

Wheels to co-empowerment,
even, and oddly,...

In Your Face


I will put it in your face, 
as long as it’s in mine.

Is slavery in your face?
They’ve all been set free.

Is child labor in your face?
They’re all in school.

Are the house wives, in your face?
They’re all dropping votes.

As long as injustice reigns;
As long...

my latest anti CCP turtle poem--



CCP Turtles Grassing Line
China’s virtual hotline
Report online remarks
Slander Communist Party history
Crack down “bygone nihilists”
Party’s 100th centenary July

Grass line allows society report
Netizens “twist” Party’s history
Attack governance policies
Denigrate national heroes
Deny superiority radical socialist nation

Clandestine motivations old nihilistic parodies
Malevolently garbling
Denigrating contradicting Party history

Internet...

I write to you brother, 
When other’s didn’t bother.
You are my brother, a son, a father
A  man.

I address you brother, 
You are born of a mother
Like everyone else,
All man.

I dare you brother,
What is your pleasure, in penetrating 3 months old?
What is your pleasure in...

No time to wait for future days
The change is here, that’s right
Yet, you deny our climate wisdom
scorn us, but still we fight

The data is in, no denying it
yet pushback from the right
Our presence  seems only to anger you
but undeterred still we fight.

Is it our...
