This poem is dedicated to all the brave federal and military "Whistle blowers"



Fighting to Survive
© 2009 Syneeda Penland

Catch me I’m fallin’,
Protect me before I hit the ground,
My mind’s goin’ round and round
On their walls I pound,
Their walls will come tumbling down!

‘Cause I’m a fighter,
Hear my cry!
I’m fighting to survive

They tried to attack my character
And my pride,
What I possess inside.

I fought back
Like I knew I should!
They never thought I could
Stand my ground.

On their walls I pound,
Determined to hold my ground,
I will not back down!

The mighty roar of a Lion,
Out loud I cry!

I will hold my head high,
High above the clouds
From the mountain top,
I will not give up!
I will not stop!

‘Cause I’m a fighter,
Fighting to survive!

  1. I like it. The bad news is that the corrupt, in positions of power, often end up destroying the lives of the Whistleblowers. Until the time comes when there is TRUE Whistleblower protection, the Whistleblower will always be in the crosshairs of the corrupt individuals who abuse their position to cover for their crimes.
