Dear the oppressed

Heavin Holguin

Dear the oppressed, You are the reason to stay alive, to strive, to fight for our lives, to sharpen our knives, and protect those who cried. Cried is the thing of the past, at last, you aided me and gave me a cast, but you have to tell your kids to fast. Fast, it’s sad you have to try and outlast, but I just want to thank you, for not becoming blue, not caring if it’s un-new, for all that you do, and for being the angle of view. View. Isn’t it nice to realize the promise, advise the calmest, and see the ways across the mighty waves, they say hey to Thomas, nay to that’s upon us and damn those who con us! Us, why can’t it be us? Not just Guss or the privileged who still throw a fuss, but us. You and me who have to plead and bleed, yo take a knee and agree to try and fight for us to flee. Flee, we’re seen like fleas! Geez! Why is life a breeze for some, and others have to sit here and eat the crumbs, live in the slums, and die with frozen lungs. Lungs! They’re meant for breathing, but we’re over here screaming! Screaming because we’re mad, sad, wanna do somethin’ bad, but at last, we’re not like the klan man who listens to the orangey tan-man and named their daughter ann, who’s brains’ a tin can, and damn for sure ain’t no college man Man, you know we have to kill the eel, save those who can’t appeal, and create a deal with the unreal. Unreal is something that’s hard to imagine, like those who experience famine, and cannons, and tragic abandons, but get zero aid from the rich in mansions. Mansions, where the people take no action, value fashion, follow their passions, steals for satisfaction. Satisfaction, the opposite of dissatisfaction! Dissatisfaction; what the poor feel when they see the fraction, their check is unable to pay for basic hospital reactions, They take legal action, but get a nuclear reaction. Police action ain’t not nothing but detraction. Caption, the rich call this an overreaction, but this damn nation will kill those who can’t afford a two-day vacation.
