Tongues of War

Solidarity songs echoing
Trampling in the forest
Birds up in the air
Escaping from frightening roars
Rhythmic terror all around
Drenching the day in horror
The masses pursuit
Way-laying none but the bosses
Deserted the purchased scrambles
Though untouched they got away
The powerful lashes of the masses' tongues
Keeps hitting their minds
