Silence

  

Silence raped the girl

and slaughtered the Tutsis

Murdered Malcolm X

 

Supported Apartheid

Approved of the Holocaust

Flooded New Orleans

 

Silence stoned Mohammed

Beheaded the Baptist

and crucified the Christ

 

Burned a thousand forests

Polluted the rivers

and abused the child

 

Occupied Tibet

Subjugated Ireland

and stole Palestine

 

 

Silence your silence!

 

Fill the night with song

    Your words are divine
