Protest,
you are the voice
in the wilderness,
calling and calling us
out of our sleep,
out of the dullness
that inhabits our ways.
Protest,
you are calling us from the
everyday to see tomorrows
that will soon come
and invade us all
against our will,
and then creep up before
we know what has gone
and what we have lost
in this subtle move.
