don't tell me what to post

post this my friends
i mean, eat it.  with all you are.
we are all the 99%
the marginalized
the few
the one who has suffered
the most.

until we realize this
we are all the
1%
the rest of the world
angrily shouting
"hey! i didn't get mine!"
and the ones taking from our neighbors
instead of giving

closing our doors and the minds of our children
and our hearts
and shutting the mouths
that ask to be fed
the souls, nourishing
walking past the majority who wants
just a moment
of our
time
so precious to us we couldn't possibly stop
because when we do
our reality crumbles
and the walls fall down
into a heap like a costume
sliding to the floor
and we have to
care
about
the 99%

and we are all it.


"he has told you, o man, what is good;
and what does the lord require of you
but to do justice, love kindness,
and to walk humbly with your god?"

-the book of micah, chapter 6, verse 8
