Today I did not want to be too

Today I Did Not Want to Be Too Political But hearing the cries of starving children pierce through my heart Today I did not want to be too political But students voices are echoing in my thoughts Today I did not want to be too political But I am imagining each hour of violent death squashing the air, and camouflaged as love Today I did not want to be too political But sensing each moment of yellow laughter in genocide breaks any ideology to keep me blind Today I did not want to be too political But choosing humanity in every breath is too radical
