The Revolution of Peace

The Revolution of Peace is Upon Us

It leeches through the underbrush

Of apathy and defeat

The Virulence of Joy

Bleeding rivulets of white

Cutting through the caked, dried, stench

Of blood turned black with age

Of many a torture session

The silent screams of many a dissenter

Snaking

Through the roils of fat suburban bellies

Sunk in the stupor of consumption

Better liposuction was never found

 

The Revolution of Peace is Upon Us

It spreads with insidious fury

Through the undergrowth of our

Children’s hearts

Changing fear to rage

Anger to Sorrow

Arms to Opposition

 

The Revolution of Peace is Upon Us

The Generals of War & Commerce & Plenty

Reel is stony apathy

This is not the world we want

They snarl

Building bulwarks of disinformation

 

The Revolution of Peace is Upon Us

Knowledge skitters through the tubes

Toppling the dominoes of Lies

The Cause & Effect chain

Spinning out in directions

No planner ever foresaw

 

The Revolution of Peace is Upon Us

We Dance on the Beach

Sing in the Sky

Run circles around profiteers

Build dreams out of tomorrow

Destroy the lies of yesterday

Shine on with the truth of eternity

 

The Revolution of Peace is Upon Us

You have no choice my friend

It is upon us.
