When all is said …
Who will lament the silence?
After stirring speeches, passionate politics,
futile threats of righteous indignations -
When the winds blow, in endless darkness - (Down in the valley of the shadows) - After left confronts right confronts wrong, and the gung-ho heroes hid in concrete caves.
After none remain to even throw
sticks and stones, or rehearsed rhetoric -
Who will lament the silence?
