Let All My Creation Perish
If I don't get hurt in your sufferings
If in human atrocities
And genocide I don't get stirred up
Then let all my creation perish here.
If through the touch of your heart's fire
And creation
Rain does not fall
From my poetry
Then let all my creation perish here.
lf I fail to laugh
If the light of the night
Doesn't wake up from me within
And I fail to draw pictures
Mixing with serenity of dawn
Then let all my creation perish here
If I fail t0 bow down before the feet of the green
if my lips do not tremble seeing the smiles of a naive
if while breaking myself
Words stay suppressed in incensement
Then let all my creation perish here.
