Unfortunately
meaningful social change
has always been accompanied
by great upheaval
and unrest
because
Unfortunately
polite entreaty
doesn't seem to effectively
gain the attention of those
entrenched in the
arrogance of power
and
Unfortunately
from Bunker Hill
to Selma
to Kent State
to Watts
to Ferguson
to Baltimore
the pattern has always been the same
and
Unfortunately
when voices
(the voice of the people)
fall upon deaf ears
the decibel level must be increased
to a level that may cause sharp pain
in the eardrum
to a level that will make them turn
grimace
and glare at you
like an angry parent
and say at long last
ALRIGHT THEN...
WHAT THE FUCK IS IT YOU WANT?
