When Genocidal savagery meets the useless outrageous ignorance of closed eyes
Again and again
another day comes to torment our hearts
with the same gruesome soul wearying news
the merciless demons lustings
for the blood of the helpless
that continues to stain the headlines
the hope-lost starving innocents
with what little strength they have
wandering weakly towards the likeliness
of their unforgiveable unforgettable unsurpassable deaths
is it possible I wonder
that even the Sun and Moon
in being forced to watch these atrocities
haven't tried to cry their fixed smiles away?
could it be that God's assumed promise to the meek has dissipated
or is it possible again I wonder
that he has gone for an eternal sleep in no-mans land?
why do we not see his anger being vented on the guiIty
or did it ever exist at all?
and why do the doors to so many billions of hearts stay closed?
the truth is that even in a hellhole like Gaza
there will always be so much elation
but it will ALL belong to deaths murdering monsters!
WHY! WHY! WHY!

As a child, I was taught about "The Massacre of the Innocents" in the bible (Gospel of Matthew) imagining it to be a mythical story or parable, concerning a faraway place, with a kernel of truth.
I now see a real slaughter being carried out with the consent of, and enabled by my own government.
