Premium Member A People's Flame: The Fire of 1789
Charles Dickens said it best, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times,” a tale born in paroxysm and flame, where streets cried for liberty beneath the weight of tyranny, and history turned, restless, in its slumber. The Bastille fell like the crumbling of old oaths, its stones heavy with the breaths of the oppressed. The mob surged,...

Premium Member Brains and Guts: The Write, Right, Rite of Revolution
Brains and guts orbit the soul— that polar star searing in the marrow of being. I was born somewhere between Einstein’s neurons Ginsburg beat poetry, the birth of rock and roll, revolution marches, and the calloused hands of a carpenter, where ink stains fight oil slicks, where the soft susurrations of Plato wrestle the raw shouts of Spartacus. Do you think Socrates...

New Dawn
Our lips burn like swords drawing blood out at the break of a dawn. Coughing poison droplets in the fabric the time has spun. There goes our youth forever; There goes our thoughts- all ends at nothing, and nothing ends at all. Praying lords to resuscitate their kingdoms where we reside, summon back the innocence of a child, leaving behind something worth living for. ...

Melted Watermelon
Where shall I go? They ask of us what I cannot sacrifice, So help. You, scared of the void of dice, Do not fear what you know has result, Let their greed grind to a halt, Their evangelism is disguised with the veneer of a mission, As they push us back in this revolting schism, Help us. Retrieve our right to humanity, Relieve the wound...

Syria, unshackled and free
Syria, unshackled by the three crimson stars, twinkling so free Yearning for so long, for the green field, the future to be Ripping off the blood-stained past of every sin and atrocity In his strength, he made the lions and they dynasty flee And they, the Guardians of the Syrian Homeland, became free...

Forgiveness, the Quiet Revolution,
Forgiveness— not a gift we give to those who break us, but a key we forge to unlock our own chains. It is not easy. No, it is the hardest thing of all, to unclench fists so tightly wound with fury, grief, and shame. It is a war fought within— a thousand battles against the temptation of vengeance, the seductive embrace of bitterness. Forgiveness is not a...

American Revolution 2
Something is amidst There's foul play It doesn't add up The numbers are way off. Yet, here we are Shaking in fear Seeing a country Stabbed in the chest As crimson blood 0Stains the nation. There's no way That it was decided From the get-go Not all the votes are tallied Not every ballot is accounted There's trickery at bay. We're not taking this sitting down. We ain't gonna roll over We...

Revolution smeared ridiculous
Revolution triumphs with hope to replace the monstrous organs that only ate but never really wanted to function. But if that hope is not equipped to fill the void with precision plans and control then revolution will get smeared as ridiculous, cause further pain and deadly destruction. (09.24.2024)...

Premium Member Unshackle the Classroom
This is a call to arms, not with guns, but with pens In the battleground of classrooms, where history pretends Textbooks are prisons, locking away truths untold Lessons are handcuffs, keeping minds on hold We're force-fed a diet of colonial lies Digesting distortions, our heritage dies But today we rise, we're breaking these chains Dismantling doctrines, rewiring our brains Cultural colonization, a virus...
