This is What I Have to Say

Lisa Tomey-Zonneveld

This is what I have to say, today

The waves of blue as compared to a rampant red – raggedy one

Blasted to the world of need,

With a course toward peace with equality, freedom, real kingdom come

if you will

Disrupted by the red-robed rage

And strange bedfellows with real evil

if you will

as they Blast that red – white – quit claim on the blue – train

Powered up – down the track like a mad whistler

Ready to storm into the night, no doubt

with white lights powered by billionaires

Reflections on white hoods, only this time it’s different

Enslaved people are already numbered

There’s the take Back to the times when slaves hid

There’s plenty to Back-track do you remember and worse to go forward

Shots fired with no regrets Back then and Now it’s come Back

Mentally deranged leadership takes over and ruins the children

So, tell me now

This is what you wanted

Then step off my porch

I may not be able to whistle, nor even shout loud enough

For what it’s worth

My home is open to Peace, my brothers and sisters

Let’s go to the altar of humankind

Embrace one another

We never needed each other more
