When Children Cry
When Children Cry
thunderous rain shall drench the ground
followed by angry bolts of lightening
striking out in tantrumous rage
warnings we are too blind to heed
rockets explode in mid air
as nation rises against nation
a blood stained earth trembles
releasing gases from its placenta
devil's torment hideous lost souls
teasing parched throats with fluid rhetoric
saturated loins of perversion
seek medical influence for pleasure
playgrounds become tainted on arsenic soil
as tears spill upon thy milky breast
lost in the canal of innocence
is the philosophy of life
When Children Cry
