The It Person

 

The Have and Have Nots

Never practiced in front of the mirror how to lie or bribe, talk dirty or ascribe to deception,

Or what I’d say when I died to make everything fine about what I did

Or did not do to make it all right.

 If the have nots only want what the haves have in regards to material wealth, then nothing’s changed.

If the oppressed only want to be the oppressor then nothing’s changed.

If the haves won't share/give to the have nots, then nothing’s changed.

There's only so much to go around and too few have too much, many have what they don't need, and too many want what can't be bought and can only be stolen.

When will it stop?

This merry go round of desperation and greed.

My only hope is that somewhere in the world/now

a child has been born /

who will never bend to old/

never forever be disgraced upon the public stage/

never regret the folly of youth nor the wisdom of old age/

recant the superiority of race and division of gender/

but will always rise up to face/

lead us into the future/

the reciprocity of equal/

the sharing of freedom/

the it person.
