not my place to speak

I grieve for the injustice
the continuation of the pain
the unresolved issues
a cloud yet remaining;
but it is not my place to speak
needing other actors
those with greater knowledge
to step into the breach
and speak truth to power

speak truth to power
quote attributed to Edmund Burke,
“All that is necessary for the triumph of evil
is that good men do nothing.”
