I Have a Dream

I have a dream, as small as it seems
Just one change is enough for me
Counting the problems is not tough on me
This time I won't keep the bluffs in me
And it starts right at home and on all my streets
Where the lights have gone out and it's darkening
And you know the majority left to sleep
When the evils awaken the worst of fiends
Unforetold and behold what unfolds is bleak
In the blackness there's red that drips on the street
Uniforms come in blue as they slash through meat
Either crips or the cops, they both sell the weed
And it spares no children from ugly scenes
This problem is common and hurting me
See a person and just tell from the look in his eyes
He's a damaged and murdurous G
All of the system is broken
The leaders are pawns or all tokens
The power of vote has been granted
But all its effects have been stolen
The people just keep on feeding this
Heads are down in slavery to greediness
Live a life in accordance, obedience
Even though they're living and seeing this
Work the time but the rich keep on stealing this
Whine about as we just keep on feeling it
No voicing for us can defend
Nobody is working to healing us
Corporations and laws come in one hand
And it doesn't even open to feed
We can sit and then wait in a line
But that isn't surviving to me
The atrocity of this generosity paucity
Has got me cursing conversely the lack of acting properly
Treat women like they're property, hit men with animosity
Whine about what bothers me (No comments on all my fallacies)
We all got time in this together
See modesty in her then forget her
Write that bad chick a love letter
Then tell yourself you're a go getter
All of the guys got no feels
Big booty equals a big steal
Fake nails and lashes and fake eyebrows
Then he cries when she's not "real"
Since when have we stopped all the hugs
Good manners have taken the plunge
Everybody just wants a good plug
Watch the people endorse some more drugs
We got people loading big guns
Just to make it rain powder and slugs
Normalizing the hearing of students bleed red filled with dots as if they're all ladybugs
Crime in the states has been piling
American Dream's difficulty is rising
Trump's in that office, he's wilding
And there cannot be denying
I can say this, so just let me bother you
You can argue and say this is wrong to you
I'll be wrong if this missed the dot with you
While your own cousin was the one who was robbing you
I now live in a privileged state
But I've felt and I've seen poverty
I know what it's like to be weak
And have people come kick out your teeth
I know what it's like to be free
I know what it's like to be clean
Even though I could remain standing
I spend nights praying on my knees
For the people to wake up and love
Have a touch of humanity
To give in to compassion and grace
And pass off on the vanity
Eradicating depression
Free all the weak from oppression
Give people means for reflection
Open up to personal inspection

There is always going to be hope
That much is enough for my life
I rest peacefully knowing
One day, we all will end strife

One day, it will all be peaceful
Not a single child will be crying
Humanity lives to be strong
So long as we all will die trying
Wow! I see the potential of a great leader in you. Your heart is in the right place. So I pray God gives you the power and the right guidance to change the world, in your way. 🙏

You're a different calibre of poet...a revolutionary one like Mark Twain and Philip Levine.👍👍👍👍👍☺️

Uniforms come in blue as they slash through meat
