Victims

Victims

Commons image of Belfast riots

When you forget

where your forefathers

came from. How they

arrived into a country.

What they did to the

people of that country.

Your amnesia allowing

you to become the victim.

Feigned sympathy for

‘the other’ side; excuse

to pogrom ‘invaders’

taking your homes,

your jobs. Paint the

pavements with your

colours. Fly your flags.

Spray your territory.

We remember.
