War
I am war,
I am bleeding faith
Turn away once more
Indifference,
Is a killing grace
Whispering  misery
To innocence
Feasting at
Tears of despair
In untold numbers
The lives I have spent
To gift you
The death angels stare
I don't think people
Even realize
I was born
In the depth of their soul
Fading to black
Seething In lies
Being human
Is consuming you whole
Now listen at the weeping sky
Hear mother's raging
Watch children die
chaos being the stated goal    
Choke on war
Your share of the lie.            Hy
