The Cycle
I can hear it now, the sound of a desperate people awoken by a new wave of anger. It is barely January and so begins what has now become a tradition in my country, in Venezuela. The cycle remains: Injustice, ire, outrage, determination, peaceful action, violent reaction, fear, death then calm. It starts over today, the reason this time being the false re-election of a tyrant. What’s different this time? We have nothing else to lose.
