[bodytext] => Does safety come through illegality? Don‘t you simply make justice a mockery? When you lock men and children away for years Are you not simply postponing your fears? How does this look to the world over there? Doesn‘t it justify them in saying the US isn‘t fair? One law for the rich, the powerful whites Another for those who live without rights Must it not be the solution of arrogant men To refuse real justice and just throw in a pen? What short-sighted bigots could create this scene? Perhaps the most callous men this world has seen? Those who would lie to start a war Who build a reputation on blood and gore? Those who USED the nation‘s anger and grief The same sleazy band led by the Thief in Chief? Those who see democracy as anything THEY do While making decisions that don‘t include YOU? A hypocrite who says a fair trial awaits, then... 'There‘s one thing I know, these are bad men.' There‘s too much hate in the world I think you know That‘s why, when you can, shout... „Guantanamo No!'

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
