 to revealing the existence of Abuse beyond belief, will seek Believers. Yet louder FAR than sound of human voice are silent, desperate cries from tortured Memory, unrelieved reliving of a Child's long suffered hell shared so vividly, without pretense O that those who see the Poems might read more than the fear-based words. O that those who stand before the Art might see beyond each colored shape and pencilled form Yet will they understand? Those who sit in seats of power so far distanced from the stark reality of R.A.T. Will there be ONE soul to grasp the real significance of undiluted PAIN. Unrelenting, unrelieved atrocities inflicted on each body, mind and soul ? Who, within UN sequestered Halls will really HEAR? Who will UNDERSTAND, not trite attempts to flaunt emotional drama, or sob a "poor me" tale, but RECOGNIZE that every blood-bought poem and drawing represents a Past and Present EVIL of the vilest ilk perpetrated with impunity UNLESS its tentacles, spread malignantly throughout the World can be effectively and permanently SEVERED UN members hold the first solution, and once informed, remain accountable Will there be integrity, an honest inner searching of Self and conscience, asking, " What will I DO?" Our R.A.T. Survivors place their HOPE for life and sanity into a stranger's hands, at cost unknown to those who merely are Observers of their living hells. Their messages today have cut the Code of Silence Will the UN grant a hearing of their Voice and offer Liberty or shut the door on them and stay this side in willing ignorance and disbelief ? Past and Present Evil lies before all at the Presentation. All who have risked so much to gain the ear and heart and mind of those who listen, wait for what the FUTURE might unfold according to each UN member's answer to the question all must ask themselves, " What will I DO about the R.A.T. dilemma within MY jurisdiction?" " Will I look with self-respect into the eyes of each Survivor and tell them I have HEARD your Voice, I will DO something ?" **************** Februrary 2004 Goessoftly A Carer and Supporter of R.A.T.
