Ghouta (Syria) Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

Massacre of the innocents
Life is meaningless under tyranny
Shredded with weapons of mass destruction
Degraded by the reckless indiscriminate violence
Amputated by the hands of a thousand bombs
Life is totally desecrated by the shameless bombardment
Innocent children and women are disregarded
As bomb after bomb strike their homes
In a merciless show of barbarism
Logic has deserted the human conscience
As blood thirsty vampires are feeding on human flesh
While the world watch in silence
