Dangerous Poetry


From Furious Spinner's blog:

Is it true that the grass grows again after rain?
Is it true that the flowers will rise up again in the Spring?
Is it true that birds will migrate home again?
Is it true that the salmon swim back up their streams?
It is true. This is true. These are all miracles.
But is it true that one day we’ll leave Guantanamo Bay?
Is it true that one day we’ll go back to our homes?
I sail in my dreams. I am dreaming of home." —Osama Abu Kadir, a Jordanian truck driver now imprisoned in Guantánamo Bay
