Speak For Peace Poem by Mohammad Younus

Speak for peace
The peacehaters will stone you
Speak for war
The warlords will garland you
Speak for coexistence
The polarizers will oppose you
Speak for rights
The violaters will scoff you
Speak for freedom
The enemy will pellet you
Speak for honesty
The dishonest will mock you
Speak for love
The hatemongers will hate you
Speak for development
The rich mafia will muzzle you
Speak for action
The sloth will gag you
Speak for a change
The lovers of inertia will impede you
Speak for pure religion
The takfërë Mullah will call you a Kāfir
Speak wisdom
The unwise will call you crazy
Speak truth
The untruthful will hate you
Speak nothing
World will move as it moves
You will be like a clod of clay
You will absolutely fail
You will fail as a change agent
You will fail to be a vicegerant of God
