Article 13 (EU)

And even        
The euros are               
Raising,          
Talking about                 
"Opportunities"                               
To escape                    
(Street based organizing,                  
Get to it-              
Hitting the              
Emotional reset button              
On liberty and justice              
And hope for...              
             
(A fresh read or representation? I don’t know what)            
             
A new intelligentsia                    
Waking up via                    
Social Media-who knew?                    
/Zombie Generation                    
Which ain’t gonna be                    
Too cute much longer-/                    
Petitions                    
Hitting up                    
Parliamentarians-                    
A new generation seeing                    
What it’s all about)                    
The political machine                    
Of internet censorship                    
Which places                    
Culture norms                    
In jeopardy                    
Uploads                    
Intercepted                    
In conjunction                    
With

Legal                    
Loopholes                    
Taking down                    
Any ole thing                    
That just isn’t                    
Conducive                    
To who they are-                    
That’s the                    
Potential                      
Exploit-                    
It’s always been                    
This shit                  
(Loopholes and the other extreme)                  
Ain’t new                  
(1 political poem                  
Has the ability to last you                 
The next 50 years;)                  
Totalitarianism                    
At work;                    
Absence                    
Of accountability                    
On the online                    
Platform                    
And it isn’t always                    
Not always-We repeat                    
Completely                  
On the part of                    
“The People”                    
Either-                    
Trying to                    
Implement                    
Some                    
“Take down”
"Stay down"                
Policy.

Author's Note
The art of protest and community organizing has done our share: globalization, prison reform and uh Dyke March just come to mind (all a blur currently). You really can’t show up in the abstract; you have to come to the table with some specific itemized demands, some order about yourselves for Gods sake and what you're willing to put into the pot; otherwise they'll never have any respect for you.

Good Luck.
