Fire erupting, scorching the land,
\ncities flaming as the oppressed make their stand,
\nEnough is Enough!\u00a0 We will be free!\u2014
\nno more 400 years of Wetiki: <\/em>white supremacy mind virus cannibalizing and enslaving legally,
\nno more protesting, exhausting, mass incarcerating, lynching, grieving\u2014too much pain,
\nEnough is Enough!\u2014now hard blowing winds of change\u2014
\nnot for a while, a day or a week,
\nEmancipation now and forever for All, for you, for me.<\/p>\n

Fire erupting, enraging the belly,
\nPassion engaging the will for dignity and parity,
\nEnough is Enough!\u2014no justice, no peace<\/em>,
\nno more waiting patiently, thank you, m\u2019am<\/em> and if you please<\/em>,
\nno more silence, polite dialogue, masked white complicity,
\nEnough is Enough!\u2014black lives mattering<\/em>
\nnot for a while, a day or a week,
\nEquality now and forever for All, for you and for me.<\/p>\n

Fire erupting, kindling the heart,
\nSpirit igniting and uniting souls, poles apart,
\nEnough is Enough!\u2014separation and fear,
\nno more hatred, systemic racism, schism and tears,
\nno more exploiting, warring\u2014Pentecost firewinds of Love swirling, foundations shaking,
\nEnough is Enough!\u2014the rotten is collapsing, new heaven and Earth building,
\nnot for a while, a day, a week,
\nJustice now into eternity for All, for you and for me.<\/p>\n

Someday after mastering the winds, the waves, the tides and gravity, we shall harness for God the energies of love, and then for the second time humankind will have discovered fire.<\/em>)<\/p>\n
