Liberate or Revolt
By MM
Intuitive soul, this kind of gift is heaven sent,
Blessed by the Creator of all that exist.
This gift is heaven sent!
This intuitive soul
used to recognize their evil plots and plans by distant miles.
Our hearts pulsating beats,
sounds off like a tribal drum beat.
The revolution will not be televised!
Liberating the Palestinian,
From the River to the Sea.
Yeah I said it
Liberate Palestine from the River to the Sea.
No, you cannot go on keep on suppressing
the humble man’s opinion.
Warring the streets until the whole world is free
from oppression, suppression,
from every River to every Sea.
1820, like the Mayflower that liberated free slaves
from the Americas to Liberia.

Your poem is raw and full of conviction, blending history and resistance in a way that feels real. The rhythm and emotion make it hit hard—you can feel the passion behind every word.
I like that your poem shows both sides of the world, the liberation, yet suppression that people continue to struggle with. It is a controversial topic to talk about Palestine, but it is nice to hear that people are continuing to fight for other people’s rights that needs to be discussed and taken more seriously. As you mentioned, throughout history, we fought for our freedom, just like others are. But that doesn’t mean that they should be suffering through the oppression and suppression till this day. Great poem!!
