Even if you lock me in a cell,
Build a fortress to blind my sight,
Protect my body with shields
To keep me safe from threats,
Tie me to a pole and try your best
To detach me from the outside world,
Hide the newspapers,
And forbid me to watch the prime news;
I would still feel,
I would still know.
The bees and the birds will report to me,
From their hasty chatterings and buzzings,
I can tell:
The world isn’t safe tonight;
Another man murdered,
Another border trespassed,
Another kid is losing faith tonight…
