Do we keep on Kicking, even after a body is down.

The world does not pause for bruises, nor whisper soft apologies for the weight. It watches, indifferent, as dust rises from a body pressed into the cold earth.

Heavy hands have left their imprint, a history carved in bone and breath. Yet still, the boots swing, drumming against worn flesh, as if pain alone were not enough.

But in the dirt, where shadows settle, embers wait beneath the broken ribs. A spark, a tremble, a fleeting pulse---because even bodies drowned in dust can rise again.

Soon comes liberation.

They thought the earth would keep them, buried beneath the weight of cruelty, voices smothered in dust, bones resigned to silence.

But the ground does not hold forever. Even the deepest root cracks through stone, and the breath of the fallen lingers, whispering to the winds that carry change.

Slowly, something stirs...a tremor beneath the broken thing, an ember fanned to flame. And like dawn spilling over the horizon, they rise.

Scarred, but sovereign, we rise. Shaken, but standing.

Not merely reborn, but remade---not victims, but revolutionists.
