Dread
stone eyes hide their fires
I turn from what I saw
livestream in technicolour
from the furnace of war
melt my core
I fence out darkness
camped behind bright lights in their eyes
diplomats sip their wine
another desert flower dies
in dreams I try
to take a boat by the compass moon
carry that refugee from this doom
there she sits in the rubble
by the poisoned river bank
Micheal Angelo`s Madonna
holding her broken man
the glass spills its sand
stone eyes hide their fires
I refuse to look
stars turn to shrapnel
saints tire of their water walk
its all just talk
teach me to live that I may dread
the grave no more than my bed
teach me to die that I may wake
my sister my brother no more forsake
