About the O.P.P.

The Occupy Poetry Project is a forum to post poetry about the Occupy Wall St. / Occupy the Fed Movement that has embraced awake Americans for the past several weeks. It is true, the Federal Reserve has acted as an enabler in the goings-on of Wall St. and rotating doors between politics and corporations have forged an immoral union that has enacted the destruction of the sovereignty of nation states and the freedoms of the people they represent. Please share your voice. All levels of writing, all types of poems and styles--including visual, are welcome. To be clear, The Occupy Poetry Project is run by those of the opinion that this project is neither republican or democrat; while tempted to use a term like Constitutional, the philosophy involved is deeper than any political party or ideal, but for the betterment of all humanity the world over, in every culture, in every land, and for all people. The Occupy movement is spreading through out the states, so here are a few guidelines.
