If democracy were not a hostage for the world super powers it would have flourished in the world including Somalia. If democracy were not a hostage, the world would have offered unconditional support and attention to nations driven to despair irrespective of oil fortune or mineral deposits. Democracy is not a weapon to crack down dictators but a human right worth defending at any cost and in anywhere of the world.


Poem Artwork

Between the Bomb and the beast
Women and children are trapped
People of Somalia are perishing
Their country is melting like ice
And the nations turned their back

Through the eyes of our tragedy
We see cracks on democracy walls
It shines for some at peace time
Collapses over others at war time
Democracy is a privilege for the few
But not a right to be exercised by all

Democracy is a privilege for the few
But not a right to be exercised by all

And that is an extremely sad travesty, my friend. I truly hope brighter days are ahead.

As George Orwell so finely put it: Some are more equal than others. Long time since I heard from you and frankly I was worried. Victor
