Revolution—Nothing Less!

Revolution—nothing less is the only way;
         to usher in a better day!
For the only way to evolve and grow;
         is the obsolete, outmoded, reactionary
         things must go.
I was destined to end up forgotten,
         wasting away in a High Security cell;
until BA challenged me and now I refuse
         to fail!
As I study the BAsics to strengthen my
         mind;
it’s enlightenment and empowerment
         for a better world I find.
Who thought someone like me who have
         taken so much could give something
         back;
And, to find one that is willing to sacrifice
         to give humanity what it lacks!
So, I challenge all my brothers and sisters
         in lockdown;
to embrace and engage this knowledge
         I’ve fortunately found.
Now as we struggle for a better, more
         equal way of life;
As we continue to emotionally and
         intellectually fight.

         Remember revolution—nothing less;
for humanity is truly worthy of our
         very best!
