A Political Poem By the silver fire Something to say Something to want Everyone knows we try Gotta get it out Away and through Out through your fingers, your lips, your eyes The world needs to know what we have to say They've far too long Run everything It's our turn. Yet we, like fools, half-turn our backs On the only hope is unity Find the art, the beauty, the truth In this chaos we know as Earth Find what makes us who we are And teach it to the rest spread it out like butter on bread to warm and help and heal If we're the future Then we must BE the future A new generation dawns. A new generation dawns. "Be the change you wish to see in the world." -Ghandi

	Wait...did you, Claire and Emma all write that together? Because that's really cool!! And REALLY inspirational!!! I absolutely LOVE the last four lines...those are the kinds of lines that make my spine tingle....and I love the quote from Ghandi you put in the bottom. Great work guys....I-....I don't even know what to say. It's beautiful.

	@ Maya; Actually, only I wrote this....I think Jessie was just saying that since we three tend to post a lot of poems and stuff....and thank you very much!!! I think those are some of the best lines, too....you're very sweet! Thank you! @Jessie; Thank you also! Gosh, I can't believe you guys like this.....okay, I spend like, FOREVER on some poems, and post them and nobody comments, or I just decide they're shitty, but then I just don't know what to write in my journal, and I happen to be thinking about this sort of thing, so I just let it out, and then you guys like, really like it!!! It doesn't make any sense!!! sweatdrop Anywho, thanks. sweatdrop

	Oh, sweetie, if you wanna put one up, GO FOR IT!! Honestly, the main reason I sometimes don't respond to some of your poems is because I don't always understand them so I feel like a moron, and I don't want to demean your poems, so I wait until someone else comments. See what an a** I am?

	You're not an a, you're just shy. You're the only person I know who could get those two things confused.... rofl Okay, well, next time, I don't care if you think you don't get it, comment! When I go to art fairs or read peoples' poems or anythign like that, I don't always get it either, but art isn't for "getting." There's always a million ways to interpret it, that's what's so great! So you see, honey, you CAN'T be wrong. Being wrong about interpreting it your own way doesn't EXIST. HAHAHA sorry I'll stop that now. sweatdrop**
