The situation is not good

The situation is not good.
In small towns, the dictators
are polishing their medals.
Wild dogs run in the streets;
among children, the rumours
of war are spreading.
And what do we have –
we who are still gazing
at our distant objective?
We have our hearts,
the capacity to love
and to be comrades.
We, who so nearly lost heart.
