Alone,
To rid my soul of pain
I shouted
Till my voice was hoarse
No one heard me
And then I heard you
Each in your separate worlds
Shouting
In your pain
I joined you
Together we moaned
Our message was too loud
To be ignored
Now our voices are blending
Walls are trembling
Foundations are shaking
Under our
Collective noise
(Based on a talk delivered by Prof. Elifuraha Laltaika of Tanzania; 10 November 2008)
