Pigs.
Part rat, part cat, and the rest is dog.
I never understood this.
Pigs calmly protecting and serving themselves
, but never the rest of us,
everything they need. They need to bathe
in the river of community
, and so realize that we are all protecting and serving each other
. The end of their days
will be our beginning.
For their protecting and serving is for only themselves.
These pigs who carry guns on their hips and badges over their hearts.
A mask of sovereign power and justice over the face of fear
less strength
and
the use of violence against those using non
violence
We are helpless against their awesome power.
The beginning must not be
alike to their beginning.
This country was founded by means of death, slavery, and the appropriation of land.
A land that was once
inhabited by a native people who were
rich
in health
and beautiful
in culture
and kind to flora and fauna.
And we have covered it in filth.
Covered in filth.
