Gradually it was disclosed to me that the line separating good and evil passes not through states, nor between classes, nor between political parties either, but right through every human heart, and through all human hearts.

That those dry weeds and thorns will rule again;
Those who were rulers of the garden before the rise of the elegant cypress and jasmine.
Now the theologians of the holy places
Shall kiss the hand of idols;
Those with the grace and stature of a cypress
Shall kiss the feet of clay dwarfs.
Yes, this silence is hard to bear;
But my heart, it is only a moment;
Have courage, there is a whole life to live.

Those who brew the poison of cruelty
Will not win tomorrow or today,
They can put out the lamps,
Where lovers meet;
They can not blind the moon.

I read this for the first time in a long defunct left-leaning Socialist monthly magazine, AfricAsia. The poem has stuck with me ever since around 1986. Though I had to resort to my old analog journal (started in 1992) to recall it precisely.
