Time Is On Our Side...

CATEGORY

Today is no different

than yesterday

and tomorrow

will be likewise

least we fail

not to realize

that apathy is

a quiet infectious disease

malignantly infusing fear

eating away courage—

feeding despair munching

on desire to live free

rather than die a slave

because if there is hope

of a tree, so for you and me.

 

Yesterday gave us today

and tomorrow’s children

wait out the past

in the present—

their future on hold

but time never stops

and is always free

and is now and is ours

to now get busy

spreading the trowel of justice

paving the path

for those to sojourn

with us and in their time

that’s been coming

since time immemorial

and has now arrived

for us to do

what must be done

to weave our past

present and future

into quilted liberation:

let’s get to sowing

my people—

time is on our side.
