Doomed Poem by Jan Oskar Hansen

Doomed



Doomed
After the bombing dead children everywhere
like a doll factory had exploded, strewn limbs
warm spaghetti on the parade of inhumanity.
From Joan Rivers to Kissinger a chorus as old as
humanity sought heaven "We don´t care you
brought it on yourself by defying us."

Down a sand dune a decapitated head rolled
the bloodied head of innocence and a chorus of
young men in black with scarf hiding their faces;
"It is your fault you brought it on yourself, and we
do not care and we will never die."

White cumulous clouds on a blue sky see it all and
will when asked do humanity deserve to exist?
Shivering we wait for the answer we know will be
what we deserve to hear.
