This is a poem I wrote. As a Canadian of Armenian decent I am dedicating it to the courageous youth participating in the hunger strike in LA.

A Voice from the Diaspora

Unnoticed we survived,
And again thrived
But to this very day we remind
With truth and dignity by our side
The Lord is our guide

Armed with truth we decry
Those who label our genocide a lie
For the truth will arise before their very eye
Pushing forth justice that remains a far cry

So suddenly to endorse a pair of protocol
That can only be ratified by drinking more alcohol
How dare Sarkisian squander my rights from our capitol?
Offering concessions that follow no overhaul
With or without our republic we must stonewall
Can this road-map be without the Diaspora after all?

A President no longer willing to fight
For the cause of justice so right
Castrated from all his might,
He relinquishes our right

If there was ever a deadline so tight,
When our community must unite,
To battle day and night without any fright
Today marks that day, not in a fortnight.
