LET FREEDOM REIGN
By Bedros Afeyan
(To M.L.K. Jr.)
The luxury of indifference Through the gospel of ignorance Made virtuous
Who can love? And what is hate? In this blissful miasmal state?
To witness all and merely shrug Choose to change channels In search of hearty laugh tracks
Nations glued to little else Beat their drums and their chests We are free! Come the cries
This is freedom. Free at last.
College Park, MD (1987)
