The Ghosts of the past: repented leftists revisited


01.20.2007 :: Latin America

Act 1 scene 1. Cemeteries of the world are filled with ghosts meeting and discussing; ghosts in sheets of red, ghosts in black and red; some with gaping wounds, others without limbs, some beheaded and blinded.

even as they dare to praise or speak
in our name and of our death.
