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.
