Among the mighty

In the presence
of mighty ones
who raised fists
and spilled blood
in the Motherland…
for truth… and justice for all,
imprisoned in the Leviathan
of Robben,
but their humanity
shone brighter than the ugly…
wisdom as smudge,
and I am dutybound
in my role as poet…
to bellow it,
to those assembled below,
hello?
