Where are the Mass Graves - Poem by Raymond A. Foss

The removal of the martyrs
the abductions in the night
the protests made silent
by the terror in the street

Where are the mass graves
that the war crimes commission will find
the tyrant murdering
his people in the night

Find them now
for the world to see
that they may act now
showing the graves of the martyrs
so he may be removed from power
