Amazing poem filled with shameful truths… this is society today

I hear it in the cities
Nothing but broken promises
I hear it echo in the mountains
Drowned out now by the pounding thunder
I feel the terror, yet do not see the pain
Cover your ears and close your eyes
Should you feel their plight
Overhead the whine of another bomb
Soon another child is taken
Another family broken
The innocent, the children of war
Pat your backs you mighty beast
For what you’ve taken
The children cry out from their pain
