Crying In the Rain
Crying in the Rain
Lurking behind the curtain of world war ;
You cheer to a Monday Night Raw;
Dancing to the melody of anarchy;
You close your senses to impending waterloo,
Completely deaf to the screams of mother earth
Who is subdued by industrial rape; she echoes dearth...
Forlorn sky weeps on; threatening oxygen depletion at the detriment of ocean life.
Father sun rages on; amidst earth's strife...
Refugee camps replace loving homes;
And mats replace comforting foams
Chibok continues to wail for her missing daughters;
As valiant khakis rummage the forest of Sambisa...
The mantra of change echoes on amidst chains:
As a fraction of the world cry in the rain...
Flora and fauna looks on in docility,
As humanity continue to dance to the melodies of calamity.
