Julian Assange





there was a blonde kid

called julian

angelic quiet type

never a hooligan

found often deep in thought

didn't like sport

captain of the village school

top student and no ones fool

so how did this gentle boy from the bush 

become americas number one scapegoat

pursued and hunted for the rest of his life

to be tortured and suffer such awful strife 

for whistle blowing and telling the truth

a sad sad story  of wasted youth

  1. Thank you, Rall! I can't think of a better response to this prompt. I fervently pray that, even at this eleventh hour, our new Govt will come to his rescue. It is the most deplorable injustice and he has already suffered excruciatingly for far too long. I am one who makes as much noise about it as I can in various ways, but I'm not sure if anyone with the power to help is really listening.

  4. It's terrifying, isn't it? We are taught to do the right thing, so we try to do it and then get punished. Makes no sense.

  5. It's a scary world out there, especially when you realize how limited your freedoms are.
