Two Ravens 023

why should they not
suffer as others have suffered

no they should not
some voices say, these not warriors
these innocents fallen to wave
to quake, to sea

no they do not
suffer, no, those left now behind
loudly lamenting and in pain
do that for them

in war blame men
here without war blame god for it
but the dead know, oh yes they know
now who to blame

was those who kept
the keys of wealth, of thought, of life
who made the whole world poor and closed
their eyes to all

economics, a dirty way
to kill a world
