VERSE | ISN’T IT IRONIC?

How long has it gone on for?
I have lost count of the days and the months
And the number of times
Facts and fiction have been combined
Made to stand hand in hand
By the gentiles that stain these lands
Caricaturizing, miming scenes
Of zealotry and genocide

I have lost count
Of the number of hospitals bombed
Ruins atop tunnels where the Khamas abound
And the aid workers killed
Unidentified dangrerous women and men
And the journalists sniped
With their arsenal of 1984 daggers and knives
And the doctors shot
With nitroglycerin bombs hidden in their surgical gowns
And the men raped in prisons
With propagandist lore stuffed up their intestines
And the women maimed
Their bellies heavy with terrorist babes
And the children killed
Starved and stilled
Their sinful blood spilled
On the promised land

How long before this evil doth cease
How long before the chosen ones can finally live in peace?
