Sepulcher After Massacre

Now, sepulcher after sepulcher! Bitter fall-out of a massacre! After talks failed: the Bilateral And later the Multilateral: Fortunate corpses for epitaph, Missing in action for cenotaph… Men glory in reckless bloodshed That succeeds in fields painting red: Attorneys could them prosecute; Dissidents they must first execute! They may be tried for genocide; Some mosquitoes braved insecticide Why do we death play like a coupon? A good shot does that from bad weapon… In hospital condition serious: That of shot-in-the-head Prince Julius!
