there is a nascent impulse that echoes in every heartbeat living within our blood to regard one another with the new eyes science has built for each of us to see the world independently unaligned with ignorant ideology untainted by nefarious nationality but nurtured rather on the premise that reality is the faculty of the mentally complete who realize if we don't pause in our crusade to exterminate each other we will ultimately deplete what it is that makes us
sentient beings possessed with the will to determine our own future divorced from the vestiges of arbitrary authority we might still muster the courage to reject this putrid dichotomy that inundates every aspect of our humanity with utter lies and disjointed hypocrisies
we dare feign innocence when blood saturates our hands from the drones bombing Yemen to the murdered children in Pakistan our politicians are manufacturing new enemies with every shot that rings out above blood-soaked foreign lands our taxes are their supply endless war is their demand
it's written in our hallowed declaration of independence which—of late—seems groundless and impotent that each of us are intrinsically entitled to life and liberty and the pursuit of happiness and that it is not merely our right but our obligation to abolish this representative republic so destructive to those ends
anarchy is our next great adventure
after all it seems glaringly clear to me that there are few distinguishable differences between the eighteenth century monarchy and our present day corporate oligarchy the interests of the people are mitigated to pitched elections between two indistinguishable political parties that infuse our world not with democracy but with hegemony they're content to watch the world rot
this is not the land of the free it hasn't been since bison roamed across midwestern plains and Native Americans communed with the Mother we all share everything changed when white puritans fleeing persecution spread religion like a festering ulcer oozing poison into the zeitgeist psyche a hive-mind mentality that fosters brainlessness and stifles free inquiry gods gold and glory
we need to learn to disobey before it's too late to erase the mistakes of the apathetic elite who've apprehended our liberty and co-opted our ingenuity for projects feeding capitalist insanity
we must rekindle the insurrectionary spirit of the creative, dedicated minority who rose up in the 50's and 60's and fought not with fists and guns but with words and deeds against war and poverty and white supremacist patriarchy
nurture the embers and fan the flames of the Black Lives Matter organizers swarming the stages of defunct politicians like Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders who propagate the status quo pour gasoline on the fires raging in the camps of Occupy in Oakland and Wall St. our modern day dissidents serve time in federal penitentiaries for blowing the whistle languishing in exile half-a-world away they wear Guy Fawkes masks and hack anonymously from the deep web exposing state secrets and war crimes sometimes they look a lot like you and you'd best believe they look like me
no longer can we trust self-styled leaders of the free world if we labor to cultivate our own communities that vaunt authenticity above authority and integrity instead of inanity perhaps then we might recognize that the impetus rests within the crux of self-acceptance and we all will say in unison it starts with me
