“85 Years is Nothing”
It may be hard to imagine
a world where
knowledge is restricted
and truth is redacted
and kept from eager ears
deserving to know
all that goes on.
It may be hard to imagine
a world where
people are denied
basic human rights
basic human dignity
basic humanity.
It may be hard to imagine
a world where
people are taken away
in convoys
removed because of
who they are.
It’s all happened before
and– wait
what’s that
on the news?
