Revolution

When it starts,
It’s quiet.
Hushed whispers.
Defiance.

A universal reliance.
Opposition of tyrants.

All we have is each other.
No this,
That,
Or the other.

It starts with flyers,
Organizational wildfires.

We are the change.
We are the starters.
In this world’s history,
We are the writers.

And yes,
I know you’re tired.

But we need you,
You are required.

Write the chants,
Lead the choirs.

We’ve got a lot of work to do,
This much I know.
And though we come quietly,
The revolution says hello.
