This Must Be Hell

This must be Hell Myanmar a place far away Where the men in charge Executed the ex-Pm and Several other ex-men I read this and found it disturbing. How easy it is to sign a death warrant, Dispose of the rubbish, Destroy families with the stroke of pen. How cheap is life? Yet no sleep is lost. A sigh of relief At such a low cost A shallow grave Without the formality But a name that might Gain immortality. Wipe your enemies From the face of the earth Rape a few women And watch them give birth Wonderful world Deadly smell There must be a heaven Because this must be Hell. David Cox 26/07/22

Animals ensouled in human form, collective depravity of mankind, the butterfly effect, arising from feral hearts, be it the unvoiced intent of a single lustful eye or mass genocide in Mynmar, Ukraine and elsewhere

Sickening isn't it. I've written a song about Ukraine. My wife is from Odessa and for the last six months we search the news while our lives stop. Here's the link. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LBtK7mJB9DI Thank you for your comment fellow human. Dave
