China tortures the tiger
sleeping at the gates of Shambhala
and the dormant conscience
of the world awakens.
Protesters not in the mood for games,
follow the flame
under the watchful eye
of "The Enlightened One."

Don't have any answers, tend to agree with the Dalai Lama, but I can understand how his followers want to be set free from oppression...and so act on their behalf...James

The world really is getting smaller, and larger, at the same time.

Really enjoyed the poem.
