Step Up! Step Lively!
by Tim Kavi
Step up! Step Lively!
Ascending certainty of your existence
shaking a fist at uncertainty
with a replacement of surety
to avoid its restraints
and assert that, yes, all lives matter!
so stop
and step lively
shake a fist! shout!
they claim they're just following orders
and procedures, rights due them,
when they leave people
lying on the ground
those stupid fuckers!
so, stop!
Step up! Step lively!
All over the world
we are telling
shouting screaming
your destiny is hurled
towards a single point
of compassionate humanity
an overflowing sense
of world community
born of tragedy
borne on the wings
of overcomers
in the winds of change!
so step up! Step lively!
come up higher
and be not faint!
Step Up! Step Lively!
