Sea Haiku For North African Migrants Poem by Chen-ou Liu

Sea Haiku For North African Migrants



their silent faces...
a summer sea
of skull knocking skull


Note: In the space of a week, at least 750 migrants are feared to have died crossing the Mediterranean Sea... excerpted from 'Mapping Mediterranean Migration, ' BBC News

The carnage on our borders will only grow without a radical shift from an iniquitous and failed system... excerpted from 'Europe's sea of death for migrants is a result of war and escalating inequality, ' The Guardian
