Mummy, they’re killing children again
Mummy, they’re killing children again
I saw blood on TV this morning
over coffee
brown swishing fluids,
shit and limbs and blood
the new milk
for breakfast
Mummy, they’re killing children again
I saw men
Big
Strong
Powerful men
camouflaged in decency
a coverup so sinful
they closed their eyes
as the guns took fire
into the tiniest of beating hearts
Mummy, they’re killing children again
I saw homes
razed to unsafe grounds
where the rats now know
they are no longer
the vermin
of the earth’s war tapestries
hung so proud
on the walls of the victors
Mummy, they’re killing children again
I saw mothers wailing
their pain so deep it
ejected
their wombs,
laid bare their eggs
like a feast for the
soldiers
of hate
Mummy, they’re killing children again
when will they come
to take us
to rape us
deny us
a life once promised by
a God we can no longer find
a God who does not see us
a God who does not
hear our grief
Mummy, they’re killing children again
in front of my eyes
the bodies pile high
over breakfast
