Poems - the 11th hour (a plea to Rafael)

the 11th hour (a plea to Rafael)

by delapruch

please Mr. Correa,
strong & admirable
President of Ecuador,
who kicked the US
military out of your
country & cut the
money flow from the
US Embassy which had
selected police officers
in your country, paying
them off to do the bidding
of the empire within your
borders---setting an
amazing precedent
for countries everywhere!!
you & your country have
been a bastion of hope,
letting others know that
they do not need to do
what the US says
just because it says it.

please Mr. Correa,
show that same strength
again, in approving
Julian Assange’s plea
to gain political asylum
in your beautiful
country, which stands
at the forefront of
civilization, with the
ability to show the world
again, that truth seekers,
that whistleblowers,
that the very quest for
transparency, exposure &
justice, which Julian &
Wikileaks represents,
will not be silenced,
extradited by Sweden &
sold into captivity back to
the US, so that unspeakable
torture & inevitably death
will be made 10 fold upon
his head, in the name of
“democracy”---please Mr.
Correa, prove to the world
that there still is a humanity
out there, which is courageous &
which will not succumb to
the policeman of the world’s
baton,
no matter how hard he wields it---
at present, Julian’s fate is in your
hands,
please make the right decision &
let your friend & comrade in
this fight against tyranny,
find a home in Ecuador,
if only for a little bit of time,
so that the US cannot strangle
him to death, deep deep deep
in a dark solitary cell, full of
electric shocks, sensory deprivation,
cocktails of truth serums &
starvation, like Mr. Manning,
no doubt, has already endured.

it’s up to you.
