The dead still dream
As they turn in their graves
Whenever we fail to grasp
The freedom for which they died
The dead still dream
Because we are still slaves
To corporate agendas
Corruption and crime
The dead still dream
Of the roads that they paved
With their blood, their tears,
Hopes, courage, ideas
The dead still dream
And the living still crave
And the chains are still stifling
Our hearts and our minds
The dead still dream
Of the love that they gave
To a future that stands indifferent
To a struggle which is not yet over
The dead still dream
And they dream of us
Walking with courage
Into the future

ReplyDeleteThe moral then is... "Do The Do." Motivation to get back to the task at hand and keep my eyes on the prize.
ReplyDeleteWalk with courage into the future. Our dreams are an extension of the great dreams of those who came before us. Who died for us to learn to read and write? Do so with everything you have! Especially since you write so well Kirt!
