1Again
I saw all the oppressions that are practiced under the sun.
Look,
the tears of the oppressed--with no one to comfort them!
On the
side of their oppressors there was power--with no one to comfort them.
One
finds it quite strange
That oppressors
need comfort
Their greed
tortures them
Who are
the oppressed
The ones
power abuses
Usually
the poor
The disenfranchised
Abused
by power elites
Succumb
in weakness
All social
levels
Have the
oppressed oppressing
Inside
and outside
Whom have
I oppressed
Whom have
I overpowered
Those who
trust me most

We
sharply criticize those we see as oppressors, when we may be oppressing others ourselves.
