Red pants
Today
I’m wearing
my silent rebellion red pants
they might not seem like much
but they’re deadly
not at first glance
not even at second
but if you look closely
if you tilt your head and listen
you might just hear them sing-
the rhythmic chanting
of angry masses
“We’re not, we’re not surpressed
to the point of surrender”
thumping the earth
challenging the skies
biting lips and fiery eyes
“We’re not, we’re not of those
who shrink back and sit.
We,
in the name of love
will STAND!”
Today
I’m wearing
my silent rebellion red pants
they might not seem like much,
but trust me,
they’re deadly.
