Of Four Walls Poem by Isaac Maliya

You are the witness, Oh four walls
Before you are all the plans for wars
But you’re dumb to talk for the laws

Your eyes have seen it all
Your ears have heard it all
Your heart has kept it all
Tight-lipped you have been to all

How much bloodletting could be stopped?
How much betrayal could be curtailed?
How much truth could be scooped?
How much of the world could be saved?
Oh! Four walls open your mouth!
