Where mystics claim their visit
Prophets preaching seen, Angles dancing
But could guide none there.

Where a criminal sells
And a victim pays
But twice as a criminal.
Life: a foam on the river
Yet its transient existence
Suffices to mark a trace
In glory or in guilt.
Liberty: An island unclaimed
Whose ownership is the contention.
So expensive that the many lives it cost
Paid stark bloodshed and massacre.

Tears scented with trust

Whose hut among the gorgeous mansions
Of wealthy neighbors though
Seen often being kicked and spat at.
