When Freedom Calls
Tibet today is a modern place, the people no longer
live under the monks’ tyranny, yak butter in the tea
and unwashed poverty. The young are well educated
smartly dressed and Lhasa has nightclubs and cafés’;
so why are they demonstrating against the Chinese?
Because they regard Tibet as occupied by china, their
tongue and culture, which is nation’s soul, under attack;
no, they don’t want the bad old days back, but they do
want their independence back. Occupiers are vampires
that absorbs a nation’s blood and thus, must be slain.
