about

Dedicated to the EZLN!

lyrics

HOPE LEXICON
some call it extinction;
i call it execution!
we must say with them:
"hope is our profession"!*
if they are to succeed or even survive
i fear they will need to grow some wings
to escape the damage of neo-liberal betrayal.
when we sleep at night their dead dream with us.
generations of indigenous
families are forcefully evicted.
their life, culture and dignity
still on the verge of destruction.
some call it extinction;
i call it execution!
we must stand up with them,
we must say with them:
“everything for everyone,
for ourselves nothing!"*
if they are to succeed or even survive
i fear they will need to grow some wings.
when we sleep at night
their dead dream with us.
(* Quotes by Marcos, EZLN)
