"
Axis of Justice

March proponents of justice 
Pepper the hillside
Cut away the grassroots of racism 
Douse the Ozzfestive fingers of local xen-ites
Carouse injustice as nightwatchmen & audio slaves 
Heal scars on broad & a find way to equalize 
Cool the heat of red hot chili peppers with fairness
Cut & slice radical colors that stain equality
A lubricated blistering sound as the garden grows 
Witness the humanity of one
Celebrate Jane's addiction
Tool & shape the rage against the machine
Blink 182 times and shout out +44 times that 
the race system is on a downward slope & social injustice is dead.

This is wonderful. I really like this poem. i love that you have "heal scars on broad" - scars are just not that easy to heal if they are not on a broad spectrum. You're absolutely right. I like the way "red hot chili peppers" is used for the heat of people who are worked up about things happening in their lives.
I really like so much of what you've written into this poem. You've done so much with the comparisons and metaphors that I read this a few times and still stand in awe.

wonderful piece!

very cleaver write, placed the bands names with perfection, I can see the talent bloom in the grass you wrote about cut clean and with direction, leading the reader to the concert of this perceptual experience....good stuff and great bands to make a rhythm of one's vision..
