Poetry

---

By love, not by hate
with light
piercing the darkness
tyranny, oppression
false truth
falling down

Such was the way of Christ
the way of disciples
following his example
down to this age, Martin
non-violent resistance
in the face of injustice

By love, not by hate
changing our land, the world
light shining, ever,
into the darkness
