Raped Women of the Rwandan Fields

The rich brown skin shines
while a hoe hovers

hacking
the flesh.

Pieces fly off the body

like chaffed wheat heads
soaked in raspberry juice.

The muffled moan
of the spirit
still sings
in
the fields of Rwanda.

this was beautiful, and so sad. it fills me with such a burden, and expresses the genocide of the hutu/tutsi tribes in rwanda with much eloquence. amazing! absolutely enchanting!
