After Party
After Party
After the war on HIVis finally over
after Sudan
Palestine . . . have ceased to become war zones
after the homeless
have been sheltered
and fed
after there is
total freedom of speech
and expression
after every person
every country
no matter how small and weak
determines its own destiny
after the need
for nuclear weapons
is long past
after hills
caves
and mountain sides
cease to harbour terrorists
determined to shed blood and kill
for various bogus causes
after rape
murder
and robbery
are referred to
only in history texts.
