Wars will totalise
and if viable are liable to add up and destroy communities, where opportunities are few and far between.
When things are seen beyond belief and death comes creeping like a thief into the square where people wait.
A demonstration of great power by powers that watch as people cower down in fright,
Night has come and with its gun will cleanse the state,
no one left to demonstrate
no one left to state the case
and freedom cannot show its face.

In God I place my trust, someone must
lest justice not be done.
