siren silence

hiding in the siren silence

within sight of invites of violence

in the sky the plight of tyrants

righteous mighty fighter pilots

 

biased bombs in flights of guidance

goliath might, the fire of giants

without a fight or try of defiance

set alight in frying alliance

 

in the final piles of subsidence

the dying cries of compliance

the price they paid is the highest

the siren silence finally quiets
