Assange... Poem by Adrian Wait

What kind of World

Is it where Left is Right
Right is Wrong,
Where Might is Right
Lies are strong
Where Up is down
And corruption thrives
Where profit is lifted
Above human lives
What kind of World
Where truth is a crime
Where there is no buddy
To spare a dime…
Duplicity, the riches gold
The price of Greed, a land
Where hearts grow cold
Crucified by indifference
State watchtowers refuse to tell
Condemned by treachery of lies
For less than thirty pieces they do sell
Truth forever sacrificed… justice dies
Assange shines in the Dark
Compassion dies silently alone
Left outside the walls of empathy
Where, truth unheard will always be
In the world we have become…
