Modern Pogam
We cowardly or nonchalantly sit in front our TV
Watching for years: the killings of babies
The odious humiliation of humanity
The bloody murders of pregnant ladies
The iniquitous insults of innocent civilians
The deactivation of so many ingenious poems
And the devastation of hope for so many
Yet, a few meshuggah pundits have the audacity
And the nerves to censor good Samaritans
And great citizens who fearlessly expose lies
And the ugliness of needlessly evil wars
Conscientious humans must decry the specious theorems
The horrific atrocity can only be described as ‘Modern Pogam’
It can also be described as ‘Hell’ in the program
Some people have no compassion, no human ties
To God’s children. Now, we all bear the sad scars
How many more must suffer and die so violently?
Cease fire is not enough. We want peace and justice
We want special or impartial courts or tribunals to publish
The lists, where all convicted perpetrators are severely punished
Poets are inspired to tell it like is
The truth always comes out with great ease
Babies cannot be guilty of any crime
Babies cannot steal land, dollar, nickel and dime.
