Last Second

Last Second

A Poem by Blackbird
"

Squawk

"

The flack of the righteous and the schemes of the docile

The result of the war was another f*****g mile

Turning our homes into the lands of no tomorrow

Razed and reduced

The Earth has been screaming

Over the voices of the new century

Your democracy is a social science

Silencing the strong and making them compliant

All we have left are memories of times when these thoughts weren’t so giant

We continue to miss the life when we were happy and mundane

But we didn’t realise back then, that our parents were thinking the same
