We Are Democracy

By: Nadeem Ahmed.

Democracy in Action by Josh Jensen

Our voices are heard, perchance less echoed.

Our views are perceived, alas, less ascertained.

Our outlooks are praised, Indeed unacknowledged.

Our existence is confined, detestably darkened-

with dominance, power and greed.

Shattered our culture, bestowed a tear.

Altered our history, imposed 'the' fear.

We still stand right, to accord a fight.

We still stand right, to cast our choice.

We define significance, we design identity,

We sprout from mightiness, we evolve in nobility...

Peace, love and respect - 'We' are democracy.
