‘610 Office’ by Li ‘Web Crease’ Du

poems '610 Office' by Li 'Web Crease' Du

610 is there
to take it down,
the Falun Gong,
that touches Dao.

It’s clear to see
the dangers of
forbearance, truth,
compassion, love.

 

Note: The 610 Office, created on June 10 (6/10), 1999, is an extra-legal agency whose sole purpose is to persecute Falun Gong. The 610 Office has absolute power at each level of administration in the Party and its influence trumps that of all of China’s other political and judicial organizations.

Featured Image: The torture of a Falun Gong practitioner by Zhiping Wang.
