Her words will light a fire underneath deniers, eye-to- eye, take on the liars, I, too have too long uttered silence while our children quietly despised us, we, even me who knew, choked it down the unclean smoke unspoken yes, how dare we leave this life behind for generations to bare our crimes, and yet they rise above to breathe fresh air the clean O2 of burning desire searing, shouting utter truth to wake the world, to sing and single out, to recognize a lie when it is a lie, FIERCE like fire, beautifully reactionary aflame, to inflame, now is here your time, rebel, my rebel child fight for your very life, your future children, species, for all mankind.

FIERCE, like fire
Her words will light a fire underneath deniers, eye-to- eye, take on the liars, I, too have too long uttered silence while our children quietly despised us, we, even me who knew, choked it down the unclean smoke unspoken yes, how dare we leave this life behind for generations to bare our crimes, and yet they rise above to breathe fresh air the clean O2 of burning desire searing, shouting utter truth to wake the world, to sing and single out, to recognize a lie when it is a lie, FIERCE like fire, beautifully reactionary aflame, to inflame, now is here your time, rebel, my rebel child fight for your very life, your future children, species, for all mankind.
FIERCE, like Greta. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.pbs.org/newshour/amp/world/read-climate-activist-greta-thunbergs-speech-to-the-un
