«Eit dikt for dei unge» av @FrodeGrytten #22juli

“A poem for the young” by  @FrodeGrytten #July22

Shoot me in my left arm, and I shall call the wound
solidarity
shoot me in my right arm, and I shall call the scar
unity
shoot me in my jaw, and I shall raise my voice
shoot me in my knee, and I shall get up again
shoot me in my hip, and I shall run faster
shoot me in my chest, and I shall work against all injustices
shoot me in the eye, and I shall see the world clearer
shoot me in the ear, and I shall hear the new voices
sing
shoot me in the heart, and I shall shout: our love
lives

Frode Grytten (translated by Jan Terje Espeland)

7 years ago today one man’s twisted ideology killed 77 people in #Norway, most of them very young Labour party activists. We can honour them by protecting the values they stood for: diversity, equality, human rights, against the hate that still lives among us. #22juli #utoeya pic.twitter.com/zKhiQpOkkJ
