Inhumane
1.
Take my daughter
She is safe with you
Out of this country
Weeping Mother
threw her two year old
In the arms of a stunned
Foreign soldier evacuating her
War torn country
2.
They have just found
Anorher baby left brhind
in the waiting lounge
not knowing
whose baby is this
ten month old
In the sea of
Frightened and
disturbed people
All alone and lost
left to defend himself!
3.
Fallen Angels cry
‘Is there anybody
to save us
from our own people
and their misguided believes.’
This wallowing cry
falling short on deaf ears-
‘Blinded by the greed of power
and hunger for blood
They are ready to shoot us all
who ever is there in the way!’
4.
Those women and men
tied and gagged
Are their own kith & kin
Their stoney eyes
Bleak and void
Their silent screams
Deafening the sky.
And we all stand and watch
while they try to escape,
‘Can they, will they
make it out of this hell.’
5.
Dust to Dust
Like an old frail lady
Shattered mother Earth
Robbed and wounded
Stands in shock and wonders,
What will happen to her children
Once they have drilled up
For the last drop of her resources
And blew it all in vanity
How will thry survive
Not knowing in her deep pain
She cries to save them
But She may not be there
to see it through the end
She is neglected to the ruin
by the greed of her own!
