Free Cee the Center of Senseless Insanity
THE CENTER OF SENSELESS INSANITY
Iraq, Iran, Pakistan, Uzbekistan and Afghanistan
All with flames of fretful fear to fan
This is akin to playing Russian roulette with the earth
And many of the casualties were only recently granted birth
Babies are being bombed by the bedside of their sisters and their brothers
While they run rampant seeking terror’s end at the bosom of their mothers
Their fathers are in some far off land defending a torrid territory
While destruction aligns with an appalling allegiance to a lurid allegory
This is an unpleasant parable of palpable and painful proportions
Wherein rulers of a country close their ears to any word of cautions
Were this only a fable I could bear the consequences of their defenses
Rather I label this a patently predictable path to the pain of paltry pretenses
Their banners of belligerence are unfurled for the entire world to see
As foreign flags denigrate the designs designated by a demonic decree
Blood and bits of bodies stain the material a blameless seamstress used
While a pacifist like me is left reeling and readily quite confused
The middle of the earth is engulfed in the middle of mayhem, murder and more
While the deserts on which they wage war produces corpses by the score
And despite the fact that I am an agnostic it begs me any way to pray
While I wonder what sort of horror an unholy horde will produce on any particular day
