| When in the event of humanistic
dealings a people finds itself faced with the reality of genocidal mechanizations....
When the scorched foot of racist opposition is brought down upon the black, brown, and beige necks of freedom, justice and equality.... When evil men in smoke-filled back rooms make pacts, in behalf of the devil, to thwart the forward progress of so-called "lesser" beings... When anger wells up in the throat of the down-trodden, like crimsoned bile, threatening to choke off the life force of it's host... When the people turn back to the Creator and away from political aggregations that talk loud--but do nothing... When the hands of time STOP, and positive action cease--for the people of the grass roots.... When individuals thrash about--caught fast in the "miry clay" of collective hate...... When success becomes a brand name for "silver spoon" mortals only, and not the "designated" underclass--who need it most....... When the people finally lose trust and faith in a government that has continually failed them...... When the educational system for those under the poverty line--not the affluent--collapses because of direct neglect...... When the constituents of a republic no longer feels safe in their homes....... When the cultural pride that you feel--as a people--starts to swell inside you until it bursts forth in a cacophony of progressive thoughts and actions....... When deep in your soul the fire of righteousness starts to burn...... When the laws of men take precedence over the divine laws of GOD..... When "fat cats" in tight suits eat, lavishly, at the table of ill-gotten gains--while some project mother sells food stamps, or worse, to help pay her rent.......... When hunger becomes a habit and not just a momentary state of deprivation..... When people use cardboard boxes for homes and milk crates for furniture.... When your back is up against the wall, and the wall is the "Gates of Hell"....... And when DEATH rides through the ghetto like some dreaded, baleful, marauder--and no one gives a damn.... THAT'S WHEN IT'S TIME FOR REVOLUTION! Your Brother, The Watcher P.S. This goes out to all the righteous brothers and sisters still on the soap box for radical change in the ghettoes. Know that your struggle shall NOT be in vain--a CHANGE is gonna come. |
