Silent Scream

It was a movement 70 million strong So the CCP decided to annihilate Falun Gong You wouldn’t think the movement was much of a threat It was non-political, but its doom was set. Normally a good thing – new organs extend life But China put Falun folks under the knife Organ transplants became a revenue source That evil still has not run its course. The details make your heart freeze The best organs come from donors without disease Donors shouldn’t be old, and not dead for long What better source than the Falun Gong? Dr. Zheng Zhi witnessed a tied down young man Still alive, doctors and staff carried out the plan Cut out his kidneys, corneas, death by operation The man's eyes still haunt Zheng, shame of a nation. Eyes desperate and fearful and in pain An enemy of the people, annihilated for gain Still alive, inside him a silent scream Macabre, hard to believe, must be a bad dream. Its valid to be cautious when extreme evil is assigned In a word full of paranoia, we must keep a skeptical mind But it's also true when brakes are off, and ethics go down hill You end up in a place where medical staff torture and kill. Many of us use Chinese media like TikTok every day We buy Chinese products, our colleges take their pay Under Mao, millions died, but that was then, now to get facts we rely on testimony, and indirect stats. But skeptics must realize beneath normality’s veneer, Evil may flourish, and innocents disappear. Let's hope this doesn't show what they'd do to you, if they could Goodness without strength, always loses to strength without good. The movement preached compassion, seventy million strong, But the hard men with the power annihilated Falun Gong.

Good poem. Scary story, but true, I think.

The irony is that Marxism was supposed to get rid of the profit motive. I think you have to pick who you trust when it comes to accusations like thi I trust the sources I've seen.
