Lament

Oh, Liberty!

Liberty, the dark horde pursues you,

Resilient, pure woman of justice, of kindness

Oh, Liberty!

How does one small human heart

Be your avenger, your ally?

Oh, Liberty!

Your shining visage shines through

This dark night!

  1. Funny /sad, how most of the statues representing various justice values are depicted as women when the actual value that woman represents is being destroyed. Recalls so much signage that advertises what has been destroyed, such as “Twin Oaks Estates” without a tree in sight – let alone an oak!
