Too busy murdering religion to see us
Milling around half-deserted streets in silence
With bandannas and masks
To protect from the smoke of still
Smoldering building which lay
in rubble,
Three Blocks Away.

Ruins, caves, corpses shot and reshot
Moment after moment plot and replot.
You passed a bill to drive us insane.
Your interest set our children's
Hopes to flame.
By missile, bullet, boat, plane.
If you don't rise, you drown
In rooms that slowly fill with water.
Because it has been determined that you will have
No family,
No mothers, No daughters.
Entrails, details, I need more details
Reason gives rise to dishonesty.
Sovereign voices are silent,
Knowing they are next, so they
Remain quiet,
Yet they give way to red smoke charred
Thoughts and out of control flames
That maim
  and signal the death of civility.
For this shit in the ground is why you killing me.
Real monsters don't exist you lie to
Them at night,
  but no one's hearing.
It is all ready too late for the secular.
For the pagans are cheering...
Three Blocks Away.
