a man called Marcos by Mike Ill Monday, March 10, 2003 Share Print Save Become a Fan (this is for the Zapatistas)
the people of the corn are living like slaves. so familiar with death they can only laugh about it over smoke and rum. brothers fight brothers for a shade in the sun and enough heat rises from the cracked and salted land to shed blood on the trees of Chiapas. peace and justice is mad and out for blood armed with sharp hate and fast bullets. the revolution is crying for its people. the masked leaders of hope. but words can't save them.
