PASSING ON...

CATEGORY

Views: 295

 

 

 

Over the sands of time,

we pass but once;

leaving footprints of memories

at the mercy of her winds,

blowing pandemonium breezes

teasing the journey

always traveled in the now;

for time never was, never

will be, but is always in the now.

 

The reality of it all is always

in the now and is always true,

as reality can know no lie;

that which is experienced

is always real—even dreams

and their midwives, nightmares.

 

And so it is with oppression

and its energized oppressors

now in charge of the nightmare

currently live streaming.

 

Footprints in the sand

are mere fragile memoirs

in the furious winds of now;

legacy must not be about who

you are but rather, what you are

doing now to bring about equanimity.

 

Racism is not a living personality

rather it's a perpetuated ideology

of our present oppressive reality.

 

Now is the time to footprint legacy:

it's better to pass on in good trouble

than to live in the hell of a bad reality;

 

Indeed, it's better to be remembered

for what you did than to be forgotten

for failing to do what you could.
