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.

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.
