We fight
For the children
I know this sounds cliche
But it is absolutely
100%
Unequivicably
true.
How many of us are there?
There are thousands
Maybe even millions now
Waging a digital war
Going into battlefields
Of words
And energy
And prayer
And connections
And support
Because this is all we can do
Right now
Training on the ground level
Boot camp of the soul
Being thrown off airplanes
In our minds
Coming to terms
With the humanity
And the unhumanity
Of enemies
As close
As the computer screen
As near as those who were
Once our childhood heros
When we were young
And innocent
And true.
Maybe it is to save the sweetness
Of our own youth
As much as to free
From bondage those who
Ae still slaves now
That we fight
That we are part of this ground crew
Of digital soldiers
Because in this war
You dont need to enlist
If you are alive and breathing and AWAKE
You are in it
You have all the weapons you need
In your willingness to SEE
And say
No
No more.
