Lament of a Refugee Camp Aide

Oh how my heart breaks

for the children

who had

undergone

traumas of war

too horrific

to endure

for ones

so young—

turning into

those chillingly eerie

beings:

the living dead;

Dear Lord!

Please give me

the wisdom, the strength—

to help these poor children,

I beg!!
