They’ve stripped you of your right to speak
They’ve restricted your rights to protest
They’ve silenced your representatives
They’ve ignored your stated wishes
Are you goddamn woke yet?

My scars will last even in my grave
My pain will throb beyond my death
There’s no expiration date for my trauma
Why is there one for the one who caused it?
Will my memory be erased on that expiration date?

Light has birthed the shadows
The shadows have stolen the light
Light fed the shadows
The shadows have swallowed the light
Light does not seek escape
Light is not a prisoner
It gave birth to shadows
Shadows are children of light

There’s a war going on and there are only 2 sides, Freedom or Dictatorship. Pick your side. There will be no do overs and no second chances. Choose wisely for if the right wins, it will be the last time you get to decide anything in your life anymore.

They wait...
For the world to care
For their leaders to care
For strangers to help
For the gods to notice
and while they wait
one by one
they die #TheAmericanHaitianPoet
If you care, share or donate or both

Why is it that religion that is so concerned with the state of my soul
Seems to utterly focused on what I do with and to the flesh of my body?
Why do they seem unbothered by lies and actions of hate
But are set afire by whom I’ve slept with and how?

For you to do the right thing
We are so done asking
For you to start listening
For you to start acting
With a minimum of understanding

It’s late, too late, I’m wide awake
The sun is tucked under the clouds
Midnight has passed, broken at last
The light of dawn seems to be gone #TheAmericanHaitianPoet
You don't have to donate and the poem isn't about that. But if you can...

They made you feel ashamed for standing for what’s right and what’s good
And YOU let them!
The ugly truth is, the only way they could have done that, is because you never believed what was right was really right.
You were always a bigot.

I wanna ride that last wave
I wanna hold until the crash
Till it dies in a whisper
Out of breath
On the
Shore
I wanna weather that last storm
I wanna grab hold of lightning
Till it crumbles in a puddle
Out of sound
In the
Soil
I wanna hold until the crash
Till it dies in a whisper
Out of breath
On the
Shore
I wanna weather that last storm
I wanna grab hold of lightning

Sorry I lost track of time
Forgot to retrace my steps
There was a promise in the wind
The scent of joy and laughter
Drawing me in with breezes
One ruffled through my hair
Drew me forward in its embrace
And I forgot to return
Forgot to retrace my steps
There was a promise in the wind
The scent of joy and laughter
Drawing me in with breezes
One ruffled through my hair
Drew me forward in its embrace
And I forgot to return

Simple pleasures for the soul
Kiss a flower
Caress a pet
Talk to the wind
Dance all alone
Simple pleasures for the soul
Sing offkey
Brush your hair
Play with stars
Wink at the moon
Simple pleasures for the soul
Dive in a book
Sit in a tree
Wade in the waves
Whisper to the river
Kiss a flower
Caress a pet
Talk to the wind
Dance all alone
Simple pleasures for the soul
Sing offkey
Brush your hair
Play with stars
Wink at the moon
Simple pleasures for the soul
Dive in a book
Sit in a tree
Wade in the waves
Whisper to the river

For you it might be the cost of a pizza, a pair of shoes, an extra accessory, for them it is food, medicine, milk, and other life necessities, the end might be near; but they must survive until then.

A single tear
Broken
A flayed chord
Hanging
A curved cheek
Flooded
A melody torn
Seeping
A weary heart

You didn’t leave when you had the chance
You stayed for fear held you in trance
The fear of being left alone
The fear of being on your own
There was no one guarding your back
There was no one to pick up the slack
All those chores, all those tasks
Never once for help did you ask
You stayed for fear held you in trance
The fear of being left alone
The fear of being on your own
There was no one guarding your back
There was no one to pick up the slack

If the by product of your protest for “peace” “ceasefire” is hate, reflect on what kind of protests you're involved in. If one of the side effects of your protests is a rise in both antisemitism and islamophobia, again question yourself as to what you are taking part in.

There will come a day
When you’ll ask yourself how did we get here?
The answers are right in front of you
It’s not a secret
We got here because, you were scared
We got here because, you were angry
We got here because, you were a coward

Throaths clogged by fear
Eyes screaming from pain
Faces emptied by dread
Shouting without words
Roaring in the void
Voices bereft of sound
Gazes screeching in agony
Bodies frozen by terror
In Haiti, people are dying from life.

I’ve often tasted my own tears
Grown by my moods
Spilled by my emotions
Never have any servings
Tasted the same
So many flavors of tears
Every time I cry
I taste my tears
Every time I taste
A different flavor
Of my own
Tears

No, it was not so long ago
How do I know ?
They are still alive those who yelled at a 6 year old girl walking to school
They are still alive those who fought to keep Black folks from voting
They are still alive those who set the dogs on Black folks
