racism

what to say?

seems there was less to say
of days gone past with yesterday
the ease of days long past
has disappeared way too fast
what to say?

does it matter when one dares
to speak their mind speak their cares
to stand and hold the line without fear
against the tyranny intent yet not clear
what to say?

how far will the darkness seek to go
to expand their controls of blind shadow
with lies of deceit and misdirection
to influence the populace by infection
what to say?

when will it end how much damage
how long the road of sacrilege
will we survive will we die
just how far will they carry their lie
what to say?

NO!          NO!           NO!
what to say ... 2

how many times
must one 
take the stand
to thwart
the dangers 
of racism

how many times
must i place 
all i have
all i am 
against the ignorance
of racism

how many times
must i explain
my dedication
to political issues 
of racism
that effect all

how many times
will others
answer the call
and stand 
for that
of right not wrong

i cannot 
answer
for others
only myself
until my days
are done

until my days
are done
