Dead Babies

Hanging from hooks, all on the wall All the dead babies, no one cares at all Murdered for the cameras, so you will weep Asylums for the weeping, dead babies make you crazy Sadness fills the diapers of dead babies entombed Kindness you never see, just a dead baby in a propaganda sea Illuminate the terror, no dead babies to be Live for your hate, let the dead babies die Live in your dreams, as dead babies cry Silence, I said silence Babies in graves do not sing A single angel of reason in the mist of a circus ring Bring the evil ones to me for their crimes Injustice I shall punish and hell I shall define Eternal flames for the ha mass of dead babies Satin is your king, I shall be your tormentor 72 billion years of fiery hell for all of you Hateful attackers’ mindless attitudes seduced

This is a well written poem. It is so sad that things like this happen in our time. Babies are suppose to be loved - not murdered. Thanks for sharing... Lucilla

Two major aspects here, Arthur,,,one the obvious one of warfare,,,,but the other,,how the media today, seem to revel in this sort of situation, i believe almost it seems to be staged for us the viewer in some aspects...i have a personal problem with many aspects of TODAY,,,you sure have enlighten one of those...

Thanks Harry, I am surprised to receive any comments on this, as I know its a difficult topic, and first and foremost, is the suffering of people, but I tried to point out much of this is caused by extremists who are excellent at propaganda.

Yes, I hear you, I find it ironic that I feel no better, When I see what they do, I wish them harm, and that goes to show hate breeds hate, just as love breeds love. Its sad for those who suffer in any conflict.
