There Is Truth In the Wild
The truth there was a war.
And the truth there is injustice.
There is oppression.
There are people, who wanted to regain
their homeland taken from them,
the homeland that became the backyard
of the oppressors, for there is truth in the wild.
The fallen are not the victors but the shadows behind them.
But the wanted men were there?
Is that the truth behind the “misencounter”
and operation without coordination?
A question rose: “why coordinate with them
of the secret operation,
to serve warrants
to the wanted men hiding in their place?”
There are so much blood spilled and tears fell
which made the plants of hatred grew faster.
The crocodiles in the rivers and in the bushes
and even in the cities are eating many of the plants.
Until the blood can’t be stopped pouring,
a war to “peace” can never stop growing.
I love you peace. Let’s sail together. Layag Sug!
