The World is Bleeding
God dispatches two angels
for each missile sent in war
to recover the souls of those perished
He then lets nature clean up the blood
with insects and bacteria
so the war-torn scenario is blessed
It’s too common a sight
men, women and children
dying in war zones
Heavens gates are swayed open
with a constant line of new souls
carried by the angels
When will the killing stop
when will the world heal
when will the angels get to break
Thank the good lord that you get to
sip your tea and watch family feud
while others are less fortunate
Let’s pray for them
perhaps the rosary
they do not deserve to die
