Kill All, Be God
“Kill a man, and you are a murderer. Kill millions of men, and you are a conqueror. Kill everyone, and you are a god.”
- Jean Rostand
Behold, when the old woman woke up
Then all around are filled with ruinous world,
With blood-stained body watching the procession of death scene
Seeing the child crying, it is understood that he has lost everything
Postmodern ravenous robotic vultures are flying on the sky
Gulping voraciously all altruistic groaning as if enjoyable pie
For the hideous sound of hostile war between home land and abroad soldiers
Now all become deaf, dumb and blind in fearing of cold-blooded superpowers
The old in traumatized and impaired speech
With devastated eyes moans – Where, O Peace!
Yes
The world is engaged in demonstrations of the best scientific energy
Who cares about the costly meaningless war of the imperialist’s key!
If the soldier dies become great martyr,
If he survives become godly warrior!
Public - the meaningless fat of a democratic constitutional body;
Increasing-decreasing them, is miracle of superpower leader’s fee!
Valiant hero-just for warrior of homeland but traitor for the conflicting country
War-elite merchant scheme; extreme revolution - just destruction, clash worldly
In these inhumane sense who listens to whom, who understands whose language
The one who has power is also the ruler, is also constitutional creator of all smash!
If the war destruction unveils any new creation; if this constitutes any peace
Why so delay? Kill, kill mass, be a hero; kill all, be God; be a war prayer beast!
