“They tell me to pick a simple tombstone,” says murdered protester’s wife

I think it’s because we wrote on Chegini’s stone ‘for what sin were you killed?’ They say the poem you wrote is inappropriate for a martyr. His tombstone has to be simple, and it has to have a poem that we want.”

Massoumeh Chegini said the following poem was written on her husband’s tomb:

“Write upon my tombstone
Under this rock a lad sleeps
With a thousand alack and doubled alas
Write, your support to stay this lad craves
Write it upon the day of my loss
In the day of sacrificing affection in reporting eyes
In the day of withering flowers in Springs
In the day of hanging madness from gallows”
