BLOOD SOAKED ROOTS

Our tortured nation
Traumatized and polarized
Overwhelming cognitive dissonance
Disguising the mendacity of the system

We are an age-old tree
Anchored to blood soaked roots
The crime of indigenous genocide
Black enslavement bears strange fruit

Today we are over capacity
A fascist order looms
Pedophiles in power
Cannibalizing countless victims

We must understand the past
We must envision a future
Capitalism organized catastrophe
Ruled by depraved cabals

Sanguine blood oozes
Permeating our society
Demons of white supremacy
The toxic hold of patriarchy

Hope is profoundly scarce
So easy to feel powerless
We must root in relationship
Moving forward with emergent strategy

I sense a breaking point
Feeling a wave of resistance
A flood of awakening consciousness
Desire to transcend this system
