Persist… suffer …Create

They grow stronger 
With the cold momentum of time
The sparks on the heel
The wings on the shoe
When the glacier accelerates 
We resist with words
Songs, poems and pamphlets
Then we make soup 
Dream carefree dreams 
And slowly with our scorched bodies 
Persist..suffer ..create
And government fists 
Drive us from our sleep 
And force us into waiting trucks
Where there was truth 
There is now pain 
Where there was freedom 
There is now fear and pain.
