The Cry Poem by Eric Cockrell

the cry for justice,
for human rights,
for equality, for
human dignity...

has never been louder!

Somalia!
Tibet!
Syria!
Israel!
Libya!
Haiti!
Russia!
China!
the United States

the right to work,
to eat, to housing,
to medical care,
to freedom of speech,
to religious freedom.....

the cry for the truth!
for positive change!
this world's in turmoil....

a new day is coming
no matter the cost!
