"A Year to Forget"

"A Year to Forget"


Can you imagine?
Memories made then to erase?
A year we need to investigate,
for truth in history for our human race.

Jan 6, 2021 is a good start.
NEVER Forget, Never repeat!!
Losing our liberty, precious democracy,
Gone up in flames of ignorant hate?

We have lost 800,000 human souls.
To a pandemic with lungs on fire,
Finally, a miracle, a curable vaccine!
Many partake, many call science “LIAR”

Misbehaving children,
how will you answer your God?
When he/she says I gave you a brain,
And you preferred a golden facade?

If you forget history happened,
Danger!! Like banning books with blood stains?
We will bury those voices who cried out:
“Remember Us, so we didn’t die in vain!”
