Wake Up Sleeping Bear

Wake Up Sleeping Bear

7.3.2020

 

Wake up sleeping bear

Wake up

 

They’re trashing your caves

And harassing your cubs

 

Wake up sleeping bear

Wake up

 

Can’t sleep through this storm

If you do

You may wake up with the nightmare

As the norm

You may wake up to find

Your freedom gone

You may wake up to find

What you’d earned is burning

Burned at the hands of those

Who don’t know what it means to have earned

But are more than happy to watch your life burn

 

Wake up sleeping bear

Wake up

 

Not just on all fours

Stand up

 

To protect all that’s yours

Don’t give up

 

They’ll take it all

And then they’ll take more

If you let them

 

Wake up sleeping bear

Wake up

 

Under masks that they wear

But they are the virus

Trying to divide

The U.S. from all of us

 

Wake up sleeping bear

Wake up

 

They are what they stand against

They are ignorance fueled by malevolence

True, black bears matter

As do they all

But Black Bears Matter

A façade as a call

Not the same at all

Not even a distant cousin

And so, matter, it doesn’t

But a front to funnel

Cash and fuel flames

Cash from sheep who celebrate their own names

Flames from the sheep who’ve fallen from life’s aims

For the wolves playing govern-mental games

And through their front lines

Lined with sheep

Their pockets lined

Funding deep

This is not a good time

For a good bear to sleep

 

So, wake up sleeping bear

Wake up

 

Wake up sleeping bear

Wake up
