Unwavering Ripples

Ghost ships of memory, good to renew

Some think of the great reset and conspiracy,

Forget about the ages of  timeless struggle

Peoples constant fight against forces that cudgel.

Conscious people rallying together, very visible

Not afraid to defend the right to protest,

In our darkest hours, delivering defiance

Standing up for rights,against injustice.

Carrying  forward opposition,with considerable hunger

Speaking truth to power that tries to obscure,

Roaring loud  not to be cowed into silence

Against media and political manipulation.

While  establishment tries to maintains its malfeasance

Creating dominant discourse that excludes dissidence,

Leaving many feeling isolated, marginalised and powerless

By protesting we challenge their corrupt moral agenda.

It's a duty, an act of  faith, a moral obligation

Freedom of speech so great, the world long been wrong,

These are times for anger, because fascism still growing

A real cause for concern as history keeps repeating.

Life is a battleground, a road of constant endeavour

Through windows of emptiness and despair keep calling,

Never  forget to find hope in seeds of solidarity 

Continue to dance among the firmament of belief. 

In beautiful actions of awakening, keep resisting

Let naughtiness run riot, criss-crossing many obstacles

Stay safe, be careful, wherever you may be treading

Keep promoting democratic values so enriching,

When calls go unheard, unreceived, ignored

Fill air all around with inexhaustible reason,

Take your time to explain your cause with devotion

Remain empowered, releasing anger and defiance.

To avoid Orwellian Police state that will brutalize

There is the need to demonstrate, with no compromise

Between the tears and pain that continue to fall

Look forward to a time when justice forever rains.
