SOLIDARITY


Patience, patience, patience.
In our sleep we still call for patience
In our apathy, we still call for tolerance.
Six feet down and we still cry peace.
The bruises of our sons and the scars of our daughters.
Never mind our bloody tears and our blatant fears.
Patience is one great virtue if differentiated from apathy and fear.
Speak up! Ye who are the silent of society.
Protest! You who are called timid.
Have a heart! Ye who turn your heads away in unconcern.
Let your voice be heard, he who hides his thoughts away from man.
