Poem – No One Listens
No one listens, no one cares, no one sees my sadness.
You can not hear those who care, deafened by your pain.
No one listens, no one cares, no one sees my sadness.
You can not see those who care, blinded by your pain.
No one listens, no one cares, no one sees my sadness.
No one listens, no one sees how much I care.

Peace makes three; the war has ended. Crowns for thee, lucky to survive. One red, one white, one blue; divided forever, slaves to a false victory.
Poem – Tyrant’s Moon
The beans grew from the sweat and tears of a mother who refused to let her child die under a tyrant’s moon.
