Justice

 

Is it justice

to have a list of victims,

where all the perpetrators

are kept hidden?

Is it justice

if those who have money and fame

get their names redacted?

Leaving the victims

with their names

shown as if in blame.

This male led world

where blame lays

at the victims doors,

she was begging for it,

did you see what she was wearing?

She brought it on herself, I’m sure,

just after attention, money and wealth.

Suck it up.

It’s not like anyone ate any kids. (Ohh wait)

 

The grass-fed herd chow it all down

without realising they are just eating

their own shit smeared ground.

This problem goes much deeper

than a former prince

and a few rich people.

There is no party divide,

it isn’t one side or another.

It’s on our doorsteps.

It’s in the men who act like

the world was made for them.

It’s in the people who vote them in.

It’s in each of us for turning a blind eye

when we all knew that they were not right.

 

Page after page,

degradation and depravity,

moral compasses all at sea,

when they keep their names

hidden from us to see.

Where is the rage?

These people need to be shamed,

locked in a cage

and the keys

melted into symbols of hope.

So, pick up a pen. Share your anger

again, and again until they listen.

 

Let us fight for justice,

but be under no illusion,

this needs change at the deepest level.

We need to be on an even playing field

to even start to unravel this mess.

Men, that means looking deep inside,

changing our outlook.

accepting our parts in all of this.

And look, it’s really quite simple.

Treat everyone as equals.

Turn off the hate for just a moment.

Stop thinking the world is against you.

It is not.

The world doesn’t give a shit.

She just spins on through the cycles,

wishing we would treat her better.

The rich on the other hand

want us to start digging

our own graves into the land.

So, aim your anger at them

and let us all do better, we owe this to the world.
