A revolutionary poet
to free Cuba from the Spanish
cultivating a white rose
symbolizing innocence and vulnerability
offering love
to both friend and foe
everyone being equal.
Should not this be normal?
the way it should always be
free
free
free
a basic foundation for life.
It seems strange
this desire to escape
from oppression and
hate
is called revolutionary.
Jose Marti
killed
in the war
for Cuban independence
a revolutionary
a great poet.

There's always been some great revolutionary poets. Sadly, though revolution also means constantly going back to the beginning.
Julia de Burgos, a Puerto Rican poet (and one of my faves), was a contemporary of Marti's. I enjoy their work AND yours. Very good post.
"it seems strange...called revolutionary" a fantastic, cutting stanza. Jose Marti is an unknown to me, your poem has enriched my education and for that i thank you. much enjoyed.
