in honor of a poet's passing: Ahmed Fouad Negm

Let it be known by all
that prisons are only walls,
that ideas are like light,
that light can jump over a thousand walls,
And that walls never hold back the spirit. 
And let it be known by all
that injustice has grown old,
that the gates of the prison are weak,
that the handles of the gates have disappeared,
And that soon all this will just be memories,
And that these promises will be fulfilled tomorrow,
And that all your days, and ours, will be filled with light.
