Resist the G20

Resist the G20

Battles raging through the streets of the unknown, 
Secrets being withheld by the richest of the elite.
A meeting that has discoursed on its very promises made, 
The very reason why we stand here, speaking our disbelief. 
We march & demand for change to truly begin, 
No false hope or broken promises, no longer the deceit. 
You say that the economy will prosper with your plans, 
Though I'm seeing rising unemployment, raising larger than began.
You made an oath that climate change would be your highest concern,
So why are we still funding big oil like a God?
You deny the very words that were spoken at one time,
So now you see us here, fighting G20 to the very end. 
You can oppress us & restrain us, you think you have the power.
"Ain't no power like the power of the people, 
'Cause the power of the people don't stop."

Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
