‘I am on a crusade to come up with creative initiatives to disarm all these cities’, Pedro Reyes says.
He takes weapons
melts them, makes them into
shovels to plant trees
and musical instruments
to make melodies.
Twisting death into beauty and life
is a miracle.
The people who envision this
and who devote themselves to it
are the most powerful voices
in a world shouting
intolerance fear greed
and insecurity.
Listen to the voices of life
and sing with them.
Better yet
find your way
of melting down destruction
and make
music.
