The truth only for a few
Who build the walls
We cannot go through
They decide what’s false
Or what’s true
It’s time we show them
What we’re made of
And about time
That we rise above
No more lies
For our kids to hear
Society where
No one has to fear
Odo was right
From the beginning
To the end of time
Overseeing our weaknesses
As long as we don’t starve
The pain that we ignore
A call for help unanswered
Provided our balance
Is kept safe - Routine’s good
Slowly we fall to edge
To the end
We miss the point - In unity
Third world so far away from us
We grab unto the things
That keep us
Unchallenged - Undisturbed
Odo was right
« There was a wall. […] It was built of uncut rocks, roughly mortared. An adult could look right over it and even a child could climb it. Where it crossed the roadway, instead of having a gate, it degenerated into mere geometry a line, an idea of boundary. But the idea was real. […] Like all walls it was ambiguous, two-faced. What was inside it and what was outside it depended upon which side of it you were on. » 1
Laughter unheard
A tendency to grow old
And ignore
Reality is altered - Forgotten
Slowly we bend
To the unseen master
Dreams repressed
Seems like our fate suits us
Poverty - Imported myth
We follow the line
Unchallenged - Undisturbed
Odo was right.
