Cannot
Some suggest: "Close eye! "
-simply I cannot.
Some demand: "Slow down! "
-simply I cannot.
Some want me to shut up
-simply I cannot.
I cannot.
I cannot.
I cannot.
"Then accept the result; "
-many say, and I shout
-my reply: "I give life."
Knowing of many walls,
-having been one involved
-with the courts and unjust,
-I spent too much time with
-amongst…
I ate with those who lost
-a comrade, a friend, brother
-or husband, or the wife…
-children or parent…
Therefore, you tell me how,
-how can I?
I cannot.
I cannot.
I cannot.
I have not only been
-there as an observer
-but also, one of them.
So, tell me, how can I?
I cannot. I cannot. I cannot.

Amusing and serious too, Nassy
