Rain to drown the tears
walls to silence the screams
a spectre to poison minds
lies to mask a regime.

Red flags to mark the blood
fear to demand submission
laws to cover the crimes
one ‘Party’* to forge division.

Nights to disguise the darkness
a din too loud to hear
walls to silence the screams
rain to drown the tears.

*Referring to the Chinese Communist Party
