A Litany Of Protest Poem by Ojeikpo Elijah

Listen, hear my voice raised in protest
It starts with a whisper, but grows louder
Tired of the lies and unjust actions
Anger fuels my words, passion fuels my fight
Not content to sit by and watch
It's time to take a stand, to make a change
Outraged by the inequality and greed
Fueled by the fire of righteous anger
Restless and ready, I will not be silenced
Even in the face of adversity
Still I stand, unyielding and strong
Tomorrow may bring uncertainty, but today I raise my voice
Protesting against the system, broken and flawed
Rejecting the status quo, demanding reform
Outspoken and unafraid, I am not alone
Testing the limits, pushing for progress
Every injustice, every wrong
Serves as fuel for my litany of protest
Tearing down walls, breaking chains
Roaring with the force of a thousand voices
Only when we unite, can we truly make a difference
Standing in solidarity, we will not be ignored
Together we rise, a powerful force to be reckoned with.
