WHAT’S COMING

Woe unto the wombs

Of those that gave birth

To the roaming killers

That live on oil, power

And children’s blood

 

Syria’s children

Feed on bread crumbs

Lying in the dust

 

Woe unto those

Rotten brain cells

From where birthed

Aggression on pretext

Of giving dreamy life

 

Man’s children

Feed on bread crumbs

Lying in the dust

 

Blood dripping from talons

Bomb dropping from wings

Burning burrows render

Rabbits in thousands homeless

Killers circling overhead

 

God’s children

Feed on bread crumbs

Lying in the dust

 

Such scenes were enacted before

Oppressors’ bones were scattered in the wind

A little bit impossible endurance needed

Before Time scourges the pestilence

From the shores

 

All children

Will feed on love

On this crystal globe
