The Wall of Names

Imagine
your sweet brother
hacked in the head with a machete,
skull splitting easy as a banana tree.

Imagine
your brave sister
raped, infected with HIV,
body and soul broken for life.

Imagine
your strong mother
shot in the head as she tried to fight,
a hunted lioness defending her cubs.
