Revolution Is Poetry by Patricia Furstenberg

That day it rained
With bullets and tears
With stones and fear
Brother against sister
Chests bare
Lips dare
I was there.

That day we yelled
Words that killed
Songs that freed
Truths willed
Teeth bare
Fists dare
You were there.

That day they failed,
We stood unafraid.
Kill the revolution
They raged.
Revolution is poetry,
We sang.
Revolution is poetry.
