I may not plead for all the human race-
that some are born to bondage and disgrace
some to a heritage of woe and shame..

and some to supreme power and glorious fame..
with my whole soul, I spurn the Doctrine base-
and as an equal brotherhood embrace,
all people! ..and for all fair freedom claim!
..know this my friends, whatever your earthly fate.

God never made a tyrant or a slave!
Woe then, to those who dare desecrate
his glorious image! For to all, he gave
eternal rights..which none may violate,
and by a mighty hand:

America shall come to the oppressed..
AND YET, WE SHALL SAVE!

Good gracious. VERY profound, these words, dear Billy.

You conviction is admirable, hun. And your words, inspirational,
as always. I knew that this piece would speak volumes of
your heart and soul, as so many of your writes do. Hold
fast to your opinions and strengths sweetheart.

Life shall be kind to those who express the like.

Brilliant poem but looking at the rest of your poems can see you are very talented, and deserve every one of the comments on here. xx

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
