Leda’s Diary

(Circa mid to late 1990s)

Postscript 2025:

Once upon a time they were children.
Later they were called “victims”; then “survivors”. 
Many other names. 

Silenced and  shamed.

They grew up.
 Fought back. 
Outlived their nightmares. 
Found their voices. 

Now they are heroes. 
Furies before whom 
Oligarchs, Presidents, & Princes quake. 
As they should.

With a 1000 voices these  Furies sing :  
“Release the Tapes”

They are  not asking. Their will be done. 
Amen .
