Express Ourselves As We Wish Poem by Hebert Logerie

Express Ourselves As We Wish

Rating: 5.0


Democracy is about freedom of speech
Anarchy is, without a doubt, the opposite
Of democracy, liberty and freedom to wish
To hope, to dream and to confront defeat.

Brothers, sisters, express ourselves as we wish
Never, never be afraid or fearless to tell the truth
If possible or reasonable, go on the summit of the roof
To tell it like it is, to exercise freedom of speech.

Democracy ought to be a celestial or divine gift
Love was given to us at birth. Don't practice hate
There's no place for racism or hatred on Earth
Life is about living until we meet with death.

Brothers, sisters, express ourselves as we wish
Fight for your birth rights to express free speech
Love will take us a long way. Love is about peace
Reconciliation, compassion, fraternity and justice.

1) Derek Chovin misused his power and might as police officer, he knew George Floyd very good and were friends from the same job, both were working as guards in the same company, Derek Chovin did this out of jealousy.

2) He may punish theft, but must never leads to death. This law must be scrapped from the law of police-corps. Such treatment will always leads to death, as we all can see. Firts victims of law and then scrapped, already a dead victim

3) So sad that Floyd must overcome this. I know that black police officers may do this same treatment, how eerie police law in the USA. Derek Chovin was very jealous because Floyd was so very popular by the women of the same club.

That punishment that Derek Chovin had done towards Floyd and that led to death, must be scrapped from the USA police law. The USA police corps are intending to put that law out of the police law and order. We hope Derek Chovin will get long life sentence (the heaviest punishment)

Freedom of speech is one of our fundamental rights. It is one of the great attributes of democracy.
