[bodytext] => A scream To the streets Rebel! It repeats... Rebel! Fight for honor Fight for freedom Fight for your skin For your fellow men know your pain There burden is the same For they too shed tears For a government they knows not a single Name of a soldier Killed overseas They weep not for the mother Who falls to her knees In prayer to a God up most high To watch over her son's corpse Contemplating why he had to die For the national budget Cannot repay her loss Or help those memories regain A 21 Gun Salute Does Nothing to ease her pain A mother joins the streets Rebel! Rebel! Send those Senators to the Pits of Hell For they are to represent us? Do what's best for us? Or what is best for them? Dear Congressmen... Can dismiss poverty in this nation as A mirage Congressman am I seeing things? Or is that a Porsche in your garage? Does the leather interior Keep you warm on a winter's day Does the Satellite radio Make homelessness okay? For this excuse of a nation For this democracy gone to hell You patriots of years gone by I beg of you, Rebel!

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. ©
