Rebirth 2024
If a year ago someone told me
that the American youth will burst on history's stage
with unbounded courage, and lift their heart
to a new great awakening,
I'd say "sweet dreams."
But, oh my god, how sweet it is, the sudden bolt in darkly sky,
the tidal wave of humanism
across the campuses, undeterred by repression.
In soul and substance now
they've erupted in their volcanic resistance
to status quo; so long subdued, now they
sacrifice for the sake of suffering humanity
bringing tears to my eyes.
