His hand tightens as it relaxes, <br />and his power is fed by suffering and taxes. <br />The terror of his grip, <br />is squeezing the life out of 'His' people. <br />While the whole world stands and watches. <br />He has no shame, no compassion, he has no humanity, no sanity. <br /> <br />It is criminal to allow it to continue, <br />without some kind of intervention. <br />Why don't our Governments do something? <br />Please end the indifference to this crisis. <br />No one cares about Africa, people so poor they are forced to eat wood. <br />While we grow ever fatter on all our food. <br /> <br />Mugabe must go, go must he, <br />to allow Zimbabwe to be free. <br />To give their children a chance at life. <br />To have toys, not a gun and a knife. <br />A chance at life is everyone's right. <br />To live and to never be afraid. <br /> <br />20/06/08 <br />20: 15<br /><br />Andrew Matthews<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/open-your-hand-mugabe-and-let-freedom-be/
