V-DAY or D-DAY
People are celebrating the world over
Dragonboats afire, and smokes hover
with cinder, prayers choken out of breath
aground mourn the vagrant souls of death
Whose victory, and whose doom
whose conspiracy, in whose room
Why such large scale of madness
and what the root of such sadness
What gain for the superior power
what pain of the suffering neath the tower
How come the wars in the first place
Inquire not the spire but the sinful base
Aren't all lives created equal and free
Oughtn't we all feed on the life tree
God's children, and children of light
Shouldn't we share the same right
WHY the disintegration and discrimination
Why the disdain and detain, deportation and exploitation
Why can some hold the other in serfdom
Why the territory, barbed fences round a kingdom
Doctor King sacrificed himself to a dream
wherein no marginal,no mainstream
Shall people die out in martyrdom
Before the world settle in peace and freedom
