September 17, 2011, an embryo of hope sprung to sudden life
Born into open arms of an unprecedented collective hug
Solidarity sprouted from a bad seed fertilized with pain and strife
Planted deep into vast hopelessness, pits of doom deliberately dug
Arrogant establishments ignoring the ninety-nine percent in dire need
Collapsed economies tossed in a foreseen sinkhole
The American Dream, now a massive grave hollowed by endless greed
Reversing ‘The Great Recession,’ today’s nightmarish goal
Elected officials do nothing for their people except spit out each bitter pill
Powerlessly force-fed rhetoric, selfish agendas and political hypocrisy
Lessons learned from the third world are that mobilization and strengthened will
Resist undue power of the one percent and return back the people’s democracy.
