Look What They Have Done

They burned the green of the woods
            they created concrete skeletons
            expelled in destruction the nature
            banned the past and its culture ..

            They put us in sordid somber prisons
            in mazes they trapped our acts
            exposed us as we were mice to tests
            destroyed what we ha of delusion ...

            the rivers and seas they poisoned
            inoculated our minds with evil
            the right, the wrong, established

            the horizons were erased
            they left no grains or seeds
            by chance we were abandoned ...!

What did they do to the rain, By people who are so profane; Need some more Novocain.
