Poem: To Charles Li: Your Hardship is Ours

It is not a crime to care for others
It is not wrong to be free
Free from the burdens of pursuit and greed
Only rising high above this confused sea

They want to ruin your name
To make themselves look good
A most inexcusable shame
It is clear their hearts no longer remain

We will not back down
Your hardship is ours
One pure body is under attack
Together we can make things right

Continue to be kind
Compassion will cure their poisoned minds
Enduring all, a bright village in sight
Freedom lies ahead

Stay strong, Charles Li
Righteous thoughts are behind you
Clear your mind and your heart
Righteous thoughts are within you
