By: Cedric McClester Iran hit the Saudis, Or so they say, What’s that got to do with us Anyway? Why should we be the ones To make ‘em pay? When Saudiis care less About the Houthis they slay The war in Yemen Isn’t justified Countless civilians Have already died So why did we take The Saudi’s side? And how come proportionality Hasn’t been applied The Saudis pay cash, Or so, the President said, While in their Turkish embassy The reporter laid dead The Prince didn’t order it From all I’ve read So if not the Prince Then who instead? Since when do the Saudis Tell us what to do? See I don’t have the answer Neither do you Yet the President responds To them, as if on cue Leaving us with the question Who the hell knew?             Cedric McClester, Copyright © 2019.  All rights reserved.
