I wrote this poem in 3 language, English...netherlands and the language of Indonesia. all contain the same message.  author: a child of Ambon. Hear my voice Hear the voice of my heart when I call out to you strangers drive my people apart by violence so hard and cruel my people always lived in harmony and now forced to separate powerless near insanity help the Moluccan before it will be to late. Hoor de stem van mijn hart wanneer ik u aanroep vreemden drijven mijn volk uiteen begaan gewelddadigheden zo cru mijn volk leefde altijd in harmonie en worden nu gedwongen uiteen te gaan wij staan machteloos, zijn bijna krankzinnig Help de Molukken, voordát het te laat is. Dengar suara dari hatiku kalau beta memanggil ale orang luar pecah belah kita melaksanakan perkosa luar biasa bangsa kita hidup dalam keselarasan tindakan kekarasan bagai lain sama jng lain tidak berdaya, hampir sakit djiwa sioh tolong Maluku, sebelum terlambat e Charisma [This message has been edited by Charisma (edited 12-15-2000).] |

Charisma, as I read this poem I think of my own country's (Ireland) turmoiled past, "strangers drive my people apart by violence so hard and crue my people always lived in harmony and now forced to separate" it is such a simple question, but one that is hard to answer WHY CAN'T WE ALL LIVE TOGETHER IN PEACE. A powerfully written poem. "an afixiation a fix on anything the line of life the limb of a tree the hands of he and the promise that s/he is blessed among women". Patti Smith |

I am in total agree with all above charisma, and unfortunately it seems, as our world continues to turn, the peace your, and similar peoples have known so long, is disappearing through the greed of others. My heart and my prayers to you and yours. jwesley |

Charisma, May your voice be heard before it is too late for you people. Violence never solves anything. Peace to you. LW Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

My friend this is so wonderful and it shows just how compassionate you truely are, but of course we all knew that a long time ago. Peace in this world would be nice and unfortunately it seems that there will never be an answer that all would accept even though love of man and of God is all the answer that is needed. Wonderful write my friend and prayers for you and your people for sure. A life with love will have some thorns, but a life without love will have no roses. author unknown |
