Money does not get things done.

We do.

Money more likely keeps important

work from being done,

when it is deemed unprofitable.

 

 

 

I can't be part of you

because our ancestors

came from different places?

We're both here now

sharing light and air,

separate but equal degradations.

 

 

 

I have a contrarian streak

I tend to read and think critically

as taught by my contrarian,

critical thinking, agnostic, libertarian

dad.

 

 

 

There are the people

who do the work

and the people who steal from them

The people who do the work

get no respect

That thieves rule the world --

poorly.

 

 

 

If we don't accept our obstacles

we won't figure out how to get

past them.

 

 

 

There are so many more of us

who believe in human rights for

all of us -- surely we can overwhelm

those who wage war to deny us.
