No, my friends and enemies,
(I do not like that word) ,
this is by no means an appeal
and nothing you have heard
about the present situation
that is allowed to smoulder
has been effective to create
support for ailing spines
I think that those who cannot stand
to speak some truthful lines
ought to reflect of who they are
when entering debate
or from behind the fence they throw
turd-pebbles with much glee,
I want to tell them what I think
perhaps it ain’t just me.
You, those who idly sit and watch
when justice is perverted
and move no finger, feel no need
when truth has been deserted
you do remind me of the crowd
who stood and watched her stripped and raped,
her killing in the street
it makes me wonder what has shaped
your conscience, is it hidden?
The saying goes that evil things
will happen everywhere
if good men just sit back and smile
as if they were not there.
