    Go ahead and swallow that GPS device

    These waters are not for the sharks to patrol
    Although they eat the fish and then tell them
    they must be vegetarians

    The row boat was not fast enough
    to escape the cave [...]

  • "Walking on their Knees, Cause they don't have Legs"

    Women working 15 hour days
    Planting seeds for the harvest
    Washing clothes for their husband
    A telephone boutique
    Nobody they have the money to call
    Nobody else with a phone
    You see, we may have 2 or 3 televisions in our house
    But in Cameroun, there is only 1 television for every 120 people.

  • IMPEACEMENT
    NOW
    Hear screaming, “Out of Iraq!!!!”
    “Then what?”
    “All of the destruction will end!”
    Sharing solidarity by listening to you.
    The high school students asked the teacher, “What can protesting possibly do?”

    the man again (returns)
    with no legs
    and no hands
    and yet
    he’s reaching out
    he’s asking for …….
    if i could give everything away
    could i help him
    if i could shed myself of all my material wealth
    give it
    and take his place
    would that somehow
    make this world
    better
    or
    not
    wanting to find out
    why its so easy [...]

  • We stand of graph paper
    ripped edges
    break lines
    confine
    divide
    Our separation implanted
    colonial thieves
    stereotyped miscalculations
    I look at you and see
    the option
    practical is not
    prejudice reaction
    practical is not nuclear weapons
    Got to think ahead
    children not fed

    muslims and hindus
    jews and christians
    buddhists
    standing on graph paper
    confined
    by religious distractions
    boxes
    drop money in…
    priests profit…
    from our sins
    separation implanted
    by colonial [...]
