People rage against the police, government, psychiatry, the Man, the system, patriarchy and all other oppression because they know anything’s possible and it’s killing them.

Knowing anything’s possible isn’t vague or airy fairy,

it’s deep within, sad, real, it’s a wild bear, a big snake, a shooting star, a baby, an unexpected feeling, uncontrollable, unwilling to be silenced, shut down, quieted, pushed under, told,

“That’s impossible.”

Anything’s possible won’t stop, won’t quit, won’t ever accept our efforts to limit it, so we may as well create with it.

We may as well join its team, fight for its rights,

for if we’re not with it we’re against it,

drugging and drugging and drugging feelings and fears and creativity,

love, imagination, rightful rage,

begging the world to confirm that we are inherently limited,

which it will not,

even once we die,

especially once we die,

so we remind ourselves,

affirm,

assert,

anything’s possible today!
