Thanks for visiting come back tomorrow and read my new post Anchor
silentlyheardonce 
I could just hear your voice yell, shut up, just shut the fuck up. I feel your truth.
Thank you for your comment. I know it was a while ago. I’ve been MIA but hope to return soon.
Post it loud and clear while you still can.
You are trying to release the fear and superb work like this will lead you to the right place to do that with insight and truth. Too many people forget the value of truth. You are a truth teller. It is perhaps the hardest role in life but the most meaningful. You write it out. You don’t spare it. Because anything less doesn’t count.
The description of how you see them (the family) and the contrast between that and the previous administration alone is shocking for the reader and describes without having to describe the emotions going on right now. I’m glad Cruz didn’t win because he would imprison women who had abortions and gays, but Trump is hardly much better. The point is more, why didn’t we have a candidate who really was for the people? Oh that’s right, because politics are corrupt and only corrupt people run (including Hillary) it’s hard when there is NO ONE to vote for. Sanders was right. He was right. I am saddened African American and Hispanic voters didn’t swing it in favor of Hillary for some reasons, they seem to not want to vote if someone is anglo and that’s not right, but it’s equally not right that both running were so corrupt. I wasn’t surprised he won. I just hope we can make some good changes but I really don’t see how with any of the candidates in power. Even Obama taking a Peace Prize when he went to war, and creating Obama Care which is unaffordable and too expensive, didn’t do as much as he hoped maybe he wasn’t able to, that’s the problem here, when someone wants to make change they can’t. The system is broken. Not just America but many other countries. What I do know is if we didn’t keep going to other countries and disturbing them we’d not have issues with terrorism we create that through meddling. This poem was superb Kim. No less than utterly superb.
Black people lack of voting weren’t the cause of Trump’s win. Black people voted just as much as white. Hillary won the popular vote which means the people wanted her but as you said the corrupt government, Trump won most of the electrol votes. Everyone thought Hillary was going to win. Remember Bernie Sanders supporters said they weren’t going to vote for Hillary. They were either going to protest and not vote, write-in or vote Jill Stein. Everyone even Sanders told them to get out to vote. But they took it for granted that Hillary would win. So now we all pay for their failed protest.
I should have added – WOMEN – women really voted for Trump far more than they thought, so many different groups didn’t vote the way the other side thought they would. That includes people of color, women, etc, I saw numbers showing the turn out of African Americans for the DEM was far lower than expected, but who knows, the polls hardly got it right! Yes I agree, Sander’s voters probably didn’t vote for her either. And Jill Stein got some of her votes. True, they took it for granted. I wouldn’t have been happy with her either though it was just a lose-lose situation without anyone who was honest w/integrity though I like the idea of a woman in office it has to be more than her gender and she is so corrupt. I wish others had run, the other REP’s who won were mixed, Bush would have been mariginally better but not by a lot and it’s ANOTHER Bush, Rubio marginally better, CRUZ is a fascist and so is DICK (sorry!) Perry. So I guess the REP candidates didn’t really impress me at all and Sanders’ was the only decent DEM but he wasn’t viable in the long run. SIGH xoxo (really loved the poem)
I told someone the lesser of two evils, I think it was Keith that said vote for the one who would do less harm.
Yes he was right – unfortunately I guess a lot don’t think like he or you, which makes me sad because I thought with the election of a man of color things were changing but …
No it just brought out more ugliness.
Powerful work! I truly feel your emotion.
Thank you much.
you are so talented.
I’m not keen on the protests in America over Trump, but then i’m not a protest type of person.
Thank you. I never protested but I understand sometimes. The tone after this election is awful. There is sadness and anger on one side and hate and racism on the other.
The last two lines really tell it like it is!
Sad but possibly true. Thanks for reading.
So powerful!
Thanks Lynz.
A deep poem dear Kim.. Has America ever been the land of the free? her past record along with Britain’s Past has been long tainted on the blood of others..
I feel your pain Kim and many more who question this land of liberty..
A Powerful poem..
Love to you my friend.
Sue ❤
You’re right, was America ever free? I think whatever freedom we had is slowly disappearing.
Which is the worry Kim… I so hope people calm down soon and stop playing into the hands of Fear..
I’m trying to find that calm in me to share. Today’s poem the anger and fear slipped out. Yesterday’s piece and tomorrow’s poem are calm.
🙂 Sometimes Water has to come to the boil and let off steam.. But it soon dispels as it comes back down to earth.. ❤ xxx
True the same with emotions.
Yes.. ❤ xx
that is our shared history
we are all slaves
to ourselves
when we hate
and cry
but now nie
i will
invest
in sin
and then
in the old
now
that i m sooo much older!
Thanks for your thought.
yw well you sure as hell have a right to be angry love
i love you and i want not one damn thing from you . aint it cool?
Your emotions can be well understood.
Thank you.
So very powerful. I think America today is a metaphor for a world governed by fear
The fear is crippling. I am trying to release the fear.
🙂
