Cannibal Holocaust

Blood sweat and tears- Nothing to gain,everything to fear

Greed, Pride, Arrogance

Like poison, you've been blinded

Like a charm, you've been hypnotized.

It all revolves around you, your wealth

How self-centered, How self-absorbed?

Give it a thought, show some concern

If you were them, wouldn't you want people to care?

 

Hopeless, homeless, they turned to them for shelter

Hospitable, they were, and made them all feel welcome

Smiles and graciousness masked their evil sneers,

They took away the country that wiped away their tears

 

They bombed, they fired, they murdered every soul

Power injected them with brutality

And took away their hearts.

Imprisoned them in land that belonged to them

With Satan as their Idol

And ignoramuses as their aid.

 

To all of you around

You donate, from your heavy purses

And tell yourselves that it would be gone

Greed and material have built

Hypocritical thoughts

If a few million unite, If a few million care

Freedom would have struck, and opened the dark lair. 

Author's Note

This is basically about the Palestine-Israel issue. A friend explained the situation that the media hides, and it truly affected me. I know most of yourll are going to bash me and hate me for this, but hey, its a free world and I have freedom of speech.
Leave hate mail.

Thats pretty good, even though Im one of those fat purses, not all are like that, I do not wish to argue, but this poem is a bit one sided, other than that, your writing is pretty exellent.
