War Dogs Growl and Rage

The rockets rain down again
With explosions ripping then
And the war dogs growl and rage
With another war in Palestine’s page

Hamas strikes and kills 
With civilian blood that spills
Do we see justice again 
Or just more hearts hardened then

There are justifications made on each side
With fists pumping against what they cannot abide
And what is left for the world to see
Faces pleading staring back at me.
