Freedoms Voice

there's a blogger mist arising

a fog thats thick as pitch

it carries words of wisdom

and its kicking up a bitch

its drifting over kentucky

and over in bangalore

its cleaving through bigotry

it will leave your head so sore

for its the voice of human reason

its the whisper of a new season

its the song of human treason

'cause gathered in their thousands

blacks and browns and whites

are laying down foundations

challenging wrongs and rights

there's a girl in alabama

and a guy in tokyo

there's a group in istanbul

and a woman in ohio

like a dragon breathing fire

or an angel that's been kissed

it's the sound of mankind moving

and its a sound hard to resist

see the poets now a gathering

and political activists too

linking hands across the globe

with a voice from me and you.
