Hear No Evil, See No Evil

Can you hear the thunderous roar Of angry engines that in the sky soar? The sirens crying in heavy alarm, Signalling of the impending harm? Can you smell the scent of iron? It is the odor of mass destruction. Blood splatters and mangled bodies, Of stolen lives and broken families. Can you hear the frightened cries, Of women and children; people alike? Drown your ears with their screams, Close your eyes, see their broken dreams. Can you see what war has done, Do you know what you've become? Evil lords of war in the people's eyes, For there in your path is where death lies. As you drop your bomb and shoot your gun, Can you see what you have done? For you seem unseeing of the scar, Caused by you in the second world war. 06/23/16
