A poem, A rant, Or perhaps a plea
Brianna Lynn
If you are feeling skeptical of the Occupy movement
Look at history
IT WORKS
It has before and it will this time
If you are feeling apathetic
If you are feeling Judgmental of the Occupy movement
Look at your mind
Judgment is what it does best, so focus this Judgment
Instead of Judging a group of nonviolent activists
Judge the Federal Reserve
Instead of dwelling on the destruction of parks,
Take a moment to think about the destruction of rainforests
Or the creation of Nuclear weapons
If you do not understand what the Federal Reserve is,
What it does,
Or how it could be involved in such atrocities,
Educate yourself.
If you are feeling apathetic
If you are confused by the Occupy movement
If you think it seems scattered,
Or there are too many issues brought to the table
You are wrong
This movement is Radical (The definition of which is in essence, going
to the root)
This movement may speak of many limbs
But they are all attached to the same rotting tree
Don’t let apathy steal your heart
