The Answer Is Blowin' In The Wind Poem by Chen-ou Liu

The Answer Is Blowin' In The Wind



for young students who have activated Hong Kong's largest-scale civil disobedience campaign ever to defend democracy and fight for universal and equal suffrage


the riot police
tighten in a ring
of shields and masks
around sit-in protesters -
a flurry of doves

a wall of students
linked arm-in-arm...
'Occupy Central
with Love and Peace'
swaying in moonlight

Note: Hong Kong's main financial district is known as Central.
