Rain

Rain.
Falling over us.
Bullets.
The clouds tell the mood of the day, gray.
My heart laments to history, Fascist.
Men with blinded actions, sheep.

When death creeps around the corner part 2

last night i found out that a dear friend of mine past on to the next world, brother Lalo passed away july 14th while coming back home from Lakota territory. He was involved in a vehicle accident which claimed his life and that of his daughter. He will not be alone in his journey to the next life, he will met up with all our ancestors and warriors before us. He will be were my mama jovita is at and my primo tavo. Ill will miss my friend, it hurts me very much that he is gone and that i couldnt say good by. I guess when you die you dont have much of a choice to say anything because when death comes it creeps around the corner...

I challenge myself to see beyond the rhetoric that many of us surround ourselves with as activist,
I have already made my mind up brothers and sisters,
I chose not live behind false curtains of words that describe my life and what I believe in
As some do,
But I choose to show you with my life, sacrificing to this movement that history is yet to be written,
That the hungry shall have food,
That the sick shall have health care,
That the ignorant shall be enlightened,
That the worker shall have the right to work,
And that all people regardless of color, religion, sexual orientation shall have a home to live in and justice for all.

Keep moving keep running don’t look back you can’t stop you wont stop I wont let you stop I know your tired, so am I but we must move on.
As I hold your hand before we jump I take a deep breath in hailing the negativity of your life to consume it for myself attempting to lesson the burden.
I fall back hit the concrete head first and awake from the deep sleep. You lay next to me with that beautiful smile that I love to look at.
Nirvana.

Honduras

So it has happend again, Central America is being held hostage once again by the tenticles of fascist. After so many years of struggle so many years of death squades we have arrived at this point in which the people of honduras are fighting to stay afloat. We must be clear that these acts of tyranny must not be supported we must resist and stand in solidarity with the poeple of honduras. If we as the people of this continent are to build a better world, one where many worlds fit we must unite and struggle against all tyranny. I stress these points...against all tyranny!
