about

A poem on the struggle of parenting while struggling for a better world

{ inspired by "Revolt" by Käthe Kollwitz }

lyrics

I bring my babies to a riot because there's no going back,
no other option for us.

I bring my babies to a riot because we are too starved to stay home.

I bring my babies to a riot because neither nothing nor no one in this world will protect them like me.

I bring my babies to a riot because we deserve bread and roses too.

I bring my babies to a riot because my infant, my child, and myself all labor:

My infant who labors for air,
My child who labors for food,
And I who labor for rent.

I bring my babies to a riot because if we don't find freedom here we won't find it anywhere.

I bring my babies to a riot because this revolution is for them.

Let the old world fall away with my age,
And let my children's world flourish with bounty.
