ARAB SPRING

Pain-wracked bodies submit
to hearts now stilled;
Immortal souls set free,
yet still beseeching love.

Pain-wracked bodies despoiled
by a tyrant’s hand.
Our cries so oft repeated
go silently unheeded.

Some, we know yet hear
our plaintive cry: These,
our fellow brethren for
truth are ready to die.

Truth’s clarion call
will not be stilled.
Th’ oppressor, with his
evil ways, will fall.
