Mortal Hail
August night. No sign of fight
Little town put out the light
Children sleep. A woman prays
A candle sheds its dimmest rays
The signal to attack is set
Skyline's turning into red
Missiles launched into the skies
Shelled and ruined town dies
Mortal hail violates
Precipitation penetrates
Into buildings. Walls collapse
Hostile army comes and laps
Attack jets are launching bombs
A death brigade invades and storms
People hide in catacombs
Shelters transform into tombs
August night. And mortal hail
Forces of peacemaking fail
Breaking news. Newsmakers lie
While orphan children cry
Tyranny rules human minds
Mass deception spreads and blinds
Politicians act like whores
Urging nations to new wars
People, all authorities
Set grasping priorities
Don't be lied for their tale
May become a mortal hail
August 2008
