Beijing
Where machines of propaganda
turn on crushing wheels
silence upon silence deadly
sown from the darkest seeds.
Where blind hearts stumble
rogues feed the regime
orders from the lair
crimes and shameless schemes.
Where tears and the innocent
uncried and still to fall
freedom all but gagged
with writing behind the walls.
Where the "610 office" reigns
a spectre blackens the sky
control with fear near absolute
and truth overrun by lies.
("610 office" - The highest institution within the Chinese government for formulating and executing the campaign
to persecute Falun Gong. A terrorist organisation specifically established for the purpose of
suppressing and persecuting innocent
Falun Gong practitioners.)
Propaganda
Slander, propaganda
words like weapons sharp
poison and the 'party-speak'
China darkest behind closed hearts.
Godless, shameless
many an accomplice to the crime
injustice every altar
nothing sacred and all too blind.
Campaigns, bloodstains
silence to a deadly call
headlines and the pages lie
with truth most feared of all.
Incarceration, intimidation,
disorder of the day
mind to media state-controlled
souls under a shadow grey.
