A Poem for IMCs from Zack de La Rocha

To Indymedia centers around the world
Written 08/31/04 in NYC as police surround
peaceful protesters in front of Fox News.

Eyes Upon The Eyes

Your the eyes upon the eyes
and upon the battons
that pound voices and bones
that erase memories of home

Your the eyes upon the eyes
in the days before the fall
your the eyes upon the eyes
that are watching us all

To witness the barricades and
the wire they place around our hearts
your document is proof that
there is a fire in the dark

Your the eyes upon the eyes
in the days before the fall
and it's your eyes that stop
their lies from burying us all

-Zack de La Rocha
