Sonnet of Life X

Sonnet of Life X Who will occupy the empty dark graves? The dugout rectangular holes await No one is immune, no one can be saved The course of destruction is written fate. Murdering, pilfering – man against man Have we forgotten to love our brother? We cry as a whole nation, Yes we can! Tears of color shed for one another. Reach back, understand from whence we have come Instill the pride of a people of Kings, The battle of life is lost, our youth succumbed Cry out brothers, sisters – Let Freedom Ring! Wake up! A new day adorns the heavens, A golden halo surrounds thy brethren.
