RESTORED

we rise in dissent
truth, like water, carves its way
through walls of silence—
we dream of the world restored,
compassion is our resistance.

❤️
oh, beautiful soul,
stand tall like the sequoias
rooted, determined
the wind softly hums your name
the earth echoes in reply

All these mediocre white guys lusting for fame and fortune. How pathetic!

GET LOUD! Your voice has POWER! 📣

POEM:

they want you to think
your voice holds no weight, no fire,
to shake the deep earth
but that is their greatest lie
roar—change is already here.

The resistance will bring them down!

POEM:

we will bring you down
not with violent revolt,
but with quiet fire,
we will not rest until we
cut off the head of the snake

COURAGE 🔥

courage is standing,
afraid but unshaken still.
honor the steadfast—
lionhearted in the storm,
unbowed as tongues cut like blades.

⛅️
never will we bow
arrows strike at tyranny
zeal fuels our bodies
in their shadows we still rise
sunlight breaks through the darkness

☀️

rise and claim your space—
the sky doesn’t seek permission
to hold the moon beams.
you are here, you are glowing,
own it. live it. inspire all.

This is an older poem (from earlier this year 🤣) but the sentiment still remains 😉.

Friends you must find your sweet spot between anger or despair. Find your people, take action, and keep moving forward. When it’s too much, unplug and lean on those you love. ❤️

True greatness comes not from domination but from using one’s influence to elevate, heal, and inspire. Peace, not war or control, is the most powerful and transformative force. ✌️

Real Americans would never bow to the hand of oppression. Stand up! Resist! Be boldly anti-fascist.

Strength is not control. Resist the urge to normalize the madness.

NEW POEM!

mindless mob, obeying blind,
authoritarians’ lies, they grind.
gaslit, goaded—truth forsaking,
applauding ruin their despot’s making.

One voice can ignite a movement. One stone can begin a fortress. Together, we rise against tyranny. 💙

Refuse to normalize political verbal violence, lies, and malicious rhetoric that fuel oppression.

Even when the days feel cold and heavy, remember that warmth and light always return. Tough times can stretch long, but hope is never truly gone. Brighter days are ahead—hold on and let yourself believe. #resist

Stop settling for halfway living. Every time we dull ourselves to fit in, a piece of our spirit fades. Choose courage. Speak up. Chase passion. Stand tall. Life is too short for mediocrity—dare to live bold and unapologetic.

I think it was a rumor started by someone saying: wouldn’t it be great if Kimmel’s first guest be Newsome.

Original poem by kali hera: they tried to still us nailing silence to the sky— yet the magpies sing with forgotten tales that blaze hotter than their tempered chains

they tried to still us
nailing silence to the sky—
yet the magpies sing
with forgotten tales that blaze
hotter than their tempered chains

BREAKING: Disney has lost $3.87 billion in value since censoring Jimmy Kimmel.

Are you boycotting?

I believe in free markets and free speech, so I’m cancelling #DisneyPlus and #Hulu. Let this be a reminder to other companies, we don’t fund betrayal—your collapse will be customer-made. #FAFO

crowds rise like drumbeats,
autumn beckons, we ignite
temples built of greed
crumble into choking ash,
justice surges from the stones

don't give them shelter
from the flames they fan with joy
truth owes not kindness
they who trade in blatant lies
let shame carve their legacy

we stand at the edge—
this precipice of darkness
presses against us
our tongues are ribbons of fire
wrapping our chains into flame

hope will be renewed
clarity after chaos.
an undercurrent
glimmers of hope, of healing
Revelations create change.
