Brutality
I haven't even processed And There came another . once again buried Innocent's story of brutality. My worries doesn't stand a chance For what they went through Places full of joyous chants Their voices ignored as deafening silence. He saved one woman But who came to save them? Made me question Our existence as human. Igniting the dread...

My heart aches at thought of elephants' plight Those splendid ivory tusks ignite Killing spree that's totally senseless Brutality against absolute defenceless. Elephants roamed with freedom graced Then intruders arrived with deadly face Felled by ignorance and arrogant gun I ask you, how can this be fun? Safari of death for beautiful ivory Bangles and beads such bloody finery This went on for too...

Police Brutality
Police Brutality We’ll shoot. Don’t move. Don’t talk or We’ll disapprove. Don’t reach. We’ll kill. Comply, Listen, Be quiet, Be still. Four in the morning wake up. Forget the horrors, don’t sip the death cup. Get ready for work, put down the sharpened knife. The first call will be in, gone is another life. Typical day, it’s a suicide who blew off half his...

Elementel Forces Cry
A morbid chill in the wind, The sea not always quiet, She's mercenary like her brutality, The sky a canvas of colours somber and sultry, A morbid sound within the wind sends shivers inside, Rain heavy and fast, vast amounts of water from the sky, A morbid chill within the air, Have we all lost touch with nature?....

Cold Reaper
I scorn the scowls of winter’s reaper steel slicing scythe his corded calamity! Who grabs the life from my chest a killing clutch his murderous glee! Cold stagnant breath rots my cheek putrid frigid blight his icy stagnancy! Loud howling voice a solemn knell the endless tolling his ringing revelry! Oh scavenger of dark March day die a death so set me free!...
