A Poem for Grandmother
This is dedicated to my beloved grandmother who made my life complete.
Damned guerrilla
Did you ever
Have mercy on
The Khmer people,
Or did you always
Have a black heart
Even from your birth?
April seventeen
Seventy-five
You said,
“Liberate the Khmer
From the hell
Of Lon Nol
And liberate
Us from the light.”
Black shadow of
Yothear troops
Excitedly
With AK Forty-sevens
You bravely walked
The streets.
Strutting with
Tire sandals
Among the bereft
Shouting “Re-
Education!”
Into joyless,
Hopeless ears.
