They came to Bama killing
And
Into black flames of hell they went- killed
On their long cow-like faces
Toothless death was smiling
She clenches the dead
And now
The wounded she nurses
"I am no callous a mother, "
She says
"Here, recluse to the cold chambers of my shadow"
Poor beings
Men,
Women
Girls
Boys
Nurslings-
They're born into chaos- crying
And now
They returned to akhira crying
They're born into chaos- crying And now They returned to akhira crying...a poem that reveals a cruel world...........written in intense feeling. thank u for ur powerful words. tony
