"Hills of the Rich" (New Poem) with comments

"From the Hills of the Rich"
by Tim Kavi

tell me
pretty one
tell me
of all
you've done
where is the
song
coming from?

where is the
wrong
coming from?

everywhere
misjustice
flows

did you know?

ten thousand
souls
in the valley
below

are screaming
are scheming
to take your
mountain house
of which
they are dreaming

they are dreaming

your armies
will crush
them
send them back
below

where all
the "non people"
go

why are they
dreaming
dreams are
the only
rest
for the
oppressed

that weren't
blessed

to be born
from where
you're seeing

you're seeing

what will
you do next?

poet's comments: this is about oppressed peoples everywhere and everywhen.
Any resemblance to what is happening in Tibet recently is coincidental.--T.K.
