Giants by Chestlyn Draghoender

Poem

Somewhere
in the East
across the river
are ‘giants’
surrounding us.
All bare,
and
breathing fire.
Fire
that consumes
whatever
is in mind.
Wait! Did you hear that?
They came
from the West
to deceive us
with lies.
And
separate us
take away our land.
They will never win.
For,
This young generation
has a will of fire.
The will to protect what is theirs.
