They run. They scream. They beg for help. Their homes are burned. The women are ***** The children are tortured. Everyone is killed. A savior amidst the government and yet her lips sit on top of each other, only opening to condemn the persecuted Rohingya... A Nobel Peace Prize winner revealing herself as an assailant of ethics. The Rohingya. The humans denied aid by almost every brother and sister, THOUSANDS of men, women, children, are drowning, burning, pleaing for mercy, as you sit in your comfy chair and read this poem, as i sit in this bed writing this poem. The Rohingya are looking into the eyes of a Buddhist state; looking down the barrel of a gun pointed at them from infancy. An entire culture dedicated to dehumanizing humans... An entire coalition of states conforming to locking the Rohingya out... A state committing textbook genocide. A world subduing to textbook ignorance. And the Rohingya fighting for the right to live For the right to be Human The Rohingya must not flee, nor fear persecution, for We shall stand by the Rohingya!
