Brian Strand Poet Verse

Enough To Make You Weep

We, 
      have the right
      to curtail life,
                              death
      was their call..
murder
        the young,unborn;

       All lied...
       the trickle
       became a torrent..
       but no one
       cried

but God....

We, 
      have the right
      to curtail life,
                              death
      again,they call..
murder
      the old,long-born;

       All lies...
       the trickle
       will be a torrent..
       no one
       cries..

but God
