[hometext] => This poem was inspired by the post revolution atmosphere in Egypt 2011
[bodytext] => I don't see any change But I gotta remain in my mental cage Before I stop being silent Before things start getting violent There's protesting on the streets again Protesters are beginning to meet again In the square that made politicians lose their hair Made 80 million people actually care We live in a world full of actors filled with a million dangerous factors But when enough is enough You know my people aint gonna bluff The military acts like they're tough The protests are getting so freakin rough Now there's more shohadat (martyrs) And now there's more mukhtalefat (differences) Now we're back to square one Let me tell you it's no fun When you see women and children getting beat on the street When you see a mother and her children with no meat to eat It's sad to see my country in need It's sad to know that they don't even know That change is coming And how they think the military's loving To me personally life is not what it seems [comments] => 0 [counter] => 146 [topic] => 41 [informant] => beebz [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => political )
