non-violent protest
worked against the British
who were not prepared
to wash their hands
in oceans of innocent blood
slaughtering people
like splattered crushed bugs
it would not
could not have succeeded
against death
camps Nazi Germany;
one vital constant
remains necessary
opposition courage
morality honour sacrifice
by brave people willing
to claim their human rights;
can achieve change
indifference looking
other ways encourages
cruelty brutality
injustice crimes
against humanity;
