Armenian Dreams

We are caught in a tragic troika of
Armenian dreams,
Armenian rhetoric,
and Armenian reality.

Armenians dream of a unified homeland
where all displaced Diasporans can finally return.
We often hear Armenian rhetoric of a future historic liberation
of Western Armenian territories lost in the genocide.
Yet, we are confronted by the Armenian reality –
a tiny vulnerable land-locked state,
surrounded by hostile or repressive regimes.
