World Gone Insane

Contributed by Steeleyes on Saturday, 12th April 2003 @ 11:25:00 PM in AEST
Topic: oops

Did America REALLY believe
Saddam had the ONLY source for WMDs?
That once these were gone all weapons
would freeze?
Then what about Anthrax have you forgotten?
The smell of this war is quite simply rotten

A few old drums have now been found
You think he could have sold these things?
Is this what we killed so many kids for?
Or are we the victim of multiple stings?

Your reputation since 9-11
when the world felt so sad
Tipped victim to terrorist
Good then to so bad

Now say you’re American and always in fear
Behind their smiles there’s a hidden sneer
Tarnished forever with the same brush
As the world’s chief child-killer George W. Bush

Your politicians saw an opportunity
That this was their time
To use your grief
The cold-hearted swine

They led you to a slaughter held in your name
Like ugly demons the hawks played their game

Don’t make a mistake and be foxed
This happened as it “felt right”
to the Holy Hawks
Look, they don’t come from any Heaven
And you went along ‘cause of 9-11

And now…
Are you happy
Was the catharsis enough?
Content in your rightness
From up above?

Or are you simply sickened
By what was done in your name?
Using God as his “partner”
This Bush had no shame
Bringing callous slaughter

With a world gone insane

I can't believe that they're talking about eliminating WMDs from the world, too....does that mean America has a licence to carry WMDs as well? does it? does it?? Why not take out Russia, because it's also the source of all those scientists? all those bombs? all those munitions? all those WMD EXPERTS???!?!??!

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
