Our face
I am not talking of hunger
I am not talking of thirst
I am not talking of darkness
and being pushed to… humiliating disgrace
the talk is of the dignity
which is dying in us
in me
in you
millions of people
are driven in to hunger
hopeless …homeless
beaten at borders
frustrated to death
no power to speak out
no power to cry…
ah…their…
deep meaningful silence…
the matter is …
the human dignity
which is dying in us
…our tolerance …
… our indifference
which smashes our face
we adjust ourselves
to every new imposed injustice
we tolerate … all kinds of humiliation
and every abuse
it is the time …
we must get up and shout
break and smash
all that …. which ruins
our human face
what is not acceptable
is … this filthy ordination
which damages human life…
we belong to one human family
living on earth
silence and toleration
just ruin our face
