Jake Aller Poet Free verse

Bombs Away Part Two

And the bombs don't stop to think
They don't laugh

They merely fall and kill and destroy
The bombs keep falling

And tomorrow and the next day
The generals will talk
The talk

And walk the walk
And proclaim the great victory

And the dead with have no voice

The dead children's screams of terror
Will not be heard in the courts of power

The bombs will have won
And we will all of us pay a price
For all of us are the bombers

And none of us are innocent
We are all guilty of war crimes
We should all be condemned to Hell

But I forget sometimes
We are in hell

And God is far away
Running away in shame
From what he had created

Satan is happy
The bomb makers are ecstatic
Another million dollars gone
And another million dollar sale 

The bombers are proud
The dead are merely dead

And the bombs, the bombs
Keep falling and falling
Forever
The bombs keep falling
